REALTOR® Association Volunteer Experience

Steve Reese OKCMAR president speech at inaugural event

Advocacy. Education. Leadership.

I’ve always believed in showing up. Whether it’s advocating at the Capitol, shaping policy in a committee meeting, or raising the bar for our industry through education and ethics, I’m all in. I’ve been honored to serve at the local, state, and national levels of the REALTOR® organization for many years.

This work isn’t about titles. It’s about protecting homeownership, strengthening our profession, and making sure REALTORS® have a seat at the table when decisions are made. I’ve invested my time and energy into efforts that make a difference for real people in real communities.

Below is a snapshot of that journey.
