The RealSource Nominating Committee will be selecting four members each to serve three year terms and two members each to serve one year alternate terms on the Board of Directors for 2013.

 

One of the main goals of our Strategic Plan is to continue to create a Board which spends its time thinking and planning strategically about issues facing the membership and working with other associations as well as the state association to effect change where warranted.

 

If you would like to be part of the team focused on raising the perception and standards of the REALTOR® profession, please complete an application and return it to RealSource by Wednesday, June 27, 2012.    To download an application, CLICK HERE.

 

The Nominating Committee will hold interviews with each candidate on a date or dates as yet to be determined in July.   It is the Board's hope that many of you will consider this opportunity to serve.
