As GEBOR president, Santos will regularly attend PAR meetings in Harrisburg. These meetings offer free educational seminars that provide representatives with the latest legislative and legal updates for the real estate industry. Former GEBOR president Mary Huffman noted, “Without these meetings, local REALTORS® would have no idea what goes on at the state and national level. Though the PAR meetings I was able to communicate the latest information to the rest of the GEBOR membership. Huffman added that she continues to be amazed at the amount of time and effort REALTORS® dedicate to protecting the property rights of their clients. “It makes me proud to be a REALTOR®.”stacy-president_01
