Elected to Grievance Committee

By
Real Estate Agent with LoKation Real Estate 3087750

boca raton realtor named to grievance committeeThis past year, I served on the Grievance Committee for the Board of Realtors and loved it.  I am always amazed, but no longer surprised, at what goes on out there.  Having been a court reporter in New York City, I thought I had seen and heard it all.  Definitely not so!  

 

The past year was a wonderful learning experience, and one I wanted to continue.  However, they cut the committee from 74 to 30 members.  I know that sounds like a lot, but with a membership of 33,000 agents in our MLS, I guess it really isn't.  

 

I volunteered, again but did not know if I would be accepted.  There are a lot of really good people on this committee. 

 

I am thrilled to share that they, once again, accepted me.  I will be serving on the 2019 Grievance Board of the Board of Realtors for Realtors of the Palm Beaches + Greater Fort Lauderdale Board of Realtors.  (whew that's a mouthful!)

 

It made my day!

Elyse immediately ‘got’ us


We found Elyse on-line after working with another realtor that was not helping us find what we wanted. Elyse immediately ‘got’ us and showed us the right properties while providing encyclopedic knowledge of neighborhoods, dog restrictions, lifestyle options and benefits/trade offs between one house/neighborhood and the other. Elyse consistently provided important information at every stage of our process. As out-of-towners this was essential to our making the right decision. We couldn’t be happier or more grateful to Elyse for everything she’s done. Elyse is a rare combination of being a true subject matter expert and, more importantly, a genuinely caring person who looks after her people.

Good morning Elyse. Congrats on your sense of duty to volunteer. The Grievance committee is harder than Professional Standards where I served for years. Enjoy your day!

Good morning Wayne,  Thank you.  Ultimately, I'd like to get to Professional Standards too.  Btw, did I read correctly that you are back in law school?


Have a great day!

I served on the committee for a long time.  Its a very important committee to monitor and control what goes on in our so called "Independent Contractor" profession.

Sham Reddy Agreed.  If you served, then you really know!

Good morning, Elyse Berman congratulations on your position on the grievance committee.... that's a VERY BUSY POSITION within our profession....and with the number of active real estate agents in your area, I would think that committee would double in size every year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Grievance or Pro Standards?  We meet every month but I've been told Pro Standards can be only once or twice a year.

Good morning Elyse - congratulations.  I am sure you are a great choice and being a court reporter in New York I am really sure you have had to heard everything.  Hey, 75% of the people there are New Yorkers too.

Good moring Grant, Thank you.  I thought I had heard everything, but no, there is always something new.   And lots of NYer's here but a lot of people from the northeast in general.
