Dear members,

As the President of the Gallatin Association of REALTORS®, I want to remind you of the many benefits of being a part of our community.

Our association is dedicated to supporting real estate professionals at every stage of their careers, and we strive to provide the resources and support you need to succeed and excel in your profession.

We had another successful Housing Report Release where Gallatin Association of REALTORS®, policymakers, the public, and the press came to attend the Housing Report Release event.

We were honored to host NAR Chief Economist, Lawrence Yun, for a report filled with valuable information on the national and state (Montana) level regarding our economy and the housing market. He was followed by Derek Sheehan of the Bureau of Business & Economic Research with the University of Montana. To finish out the event, a panel discussion was held with Mindy DeCosse - Program Coordinator Program Coordinator at HRDC & REALTOR®; Daryl Schliem - CEO of the Bozeman Chamber of Commerce, Mark Bond - Community Engagement Manager of One Valley, Terry Cunningham - Mayor of Bozeman, and Sean O’Callaghan - Chief Planning Officer for Gallatin County. We would like to sincerely thank all the members of the GAR Steering Committee who supplied data and worked tirelessly in our efforts to put out a meaningful and valuable resource.

For those of you who attended the MAR Spring Business Meeting in Helena, you had the opportunity to gain valuable insights into the latest industry developments, learn about new trends, and discover best practices and strategies for success in today's competitive real estate market.

I also want to remind you to explore the opportunities available to volunteer with GAR. Your help is crucial to making our organization the best it can be. I sincerely appreciate your dedication and commitment to the real estate profession.

As a member of the Gallatin Association of REALTORS®, your active participation and engagement are appreciated, and you help our association thrive. You are an integral part of our community, and your involvement is crucial to our success. I encourage you to stay connected with the Association and take full advantage of the wealth of resources and support we offer. Together, we can continue to raise the bar for excellence in the real estate industry.

Thank you!

Brian Tudor
