Megan McFarlane advanced first-of-their-kind initiatives that positioned the New Mexico Multiple Listing Service as a national leader in innovation, collaboration and member engagement. A 20-year MLS industry veteran, McFarlane led NMMLS to become the first MLS in the nation to require floor plans on every listing, raising standards for listing accuracy and consumer clarity. She also launched the nation’s first nationwide Property Description Contest, promoting stronger, consumer-focused listing content. McFarlane further expanded industry collaboration by creating the first-ever Virtual MLS Summit, inviting more than 65,000 MLS members, brokers, industry leaders and vendor partners nationwide. The initiative has since expanded to include focused mini-summits and an annual virtual event, now supported by five partnering MLS organizations, strengthening education, dialogue and cooperation across the MLS industry nationwide.
