REALTOR® Association Volunteer Experience

Steve Reese OKCMAR president speech at inaugural eventMy participation in committee work with colleagues from all around the country gives me such energy and makes me a more well-rounded real estate professional. Being able to help shape our industry could not be more fulfilling to me either. I thrive on advocating for consumers and members alike.

My career has been shaped by many practical experiences. My passion lies in building the real estate profession to a high level of competency through unshakable ethics, strong advocacy, and thoughtful leadership. I am a huge community evangelist and focus much of my attention outward to the many small businesses, organizations, and individuals who make a positive impact on the community.

Experience with REALTOR® association management in the areas of education, marketing, and community outreach gives me a broad perspective on the latest real estate trends and successful marketing techniques. I’ve played an active part in the real estate industry since 1994, with about 12 years invested in senior-level positions with our state association of REALTORS®.
