PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release  

July 8, 2010 

 

My Florida Regional MLS Welcomes New President Aaron Chandler 

 

ORLANDO—My Florida Regional MLS (MFRMLS) is proud to welcome Aaron Chandler as its newly 

elected President for the 2010‐2011 term. Presiding over a cadre of elected volunteers, Chandler and 

the Board of Directors govern the operations and policies of MFRMLS—a consortium formed by 

 13 shareholder REALTOR® associations throughout central and southwest Florida.    

 

As a long‐time Floridian and owner/broker of Brooks Chandler Realty and CDC Properties of Central 

Florida located in Lakeland, Florida, Chandler's experience as a REALTOR® and as a former general 

contractor spans for more than 30 years—helping him to acquire the wisdom and leadership needed to 

guide the regional multiple listing service through the next stages of the housing turnaround. 

 

Prior to his ascension to the presidency, Chandler has served on the MLS Board of Directors for the past 

five years. Previous positions include President‐Elect, Treasurer and a few years as a Director 

representing the Lakeland Association of REALTORS®. He has also chaired several committees including 

Finance, Investment and several relating to MLS Technology. Chandler possesses the e‐PRO Certification 

for Internet Professionalism from the National Association of REALTORS® and is a candidate for the 

distinguished designation of Certified Real Estate Broker Manager (CRB).

During his term, Chandler and MFRMLS are committed to providing value‐added services that rival the 

best in the industry. In addition to the core listing database, the MLS subscribers receive numerous 

productivity and marketing tools to help improve their efficiency as real estate professionals.  Through 

the "strength‐in‐numbers" concept championed by MFRMLS, subscribers have access to the top 

technology real estate products in the nation. Chandler and his team work diligently to offer these tools 

at little or no extra cost to the subscribers.  

 

Chandler played a significant role in the launch of a free home buyers' website—

MyFloridaHomesMLS.com. Launched in November 2008 with marketing and promotional efforts coming 

to fruition during 2009 and year‐to‐date 2010, MyFloridaHomesMLS.com is bridging the gap between 

home buyers and the MLS. "Traditionally, MLS information was not available to the general public. 

MyFloridaHomesMLS.com allows consumers to research homes for sale, value their homes, search for 

short sale and bank‐owned homes, and even locate a REALTOR®," says Chandler. "The website is 

synchronized with the MLS every 15 minutes, which makes it among the most timely and accurate in the 

Florida market."  

 

Recently, the organization extended its offering beyond residential properties. Designed specifically for 

commercial real estate transactions, Chandler and his team launched My Florida Commercial Real Estate 

(MFCRE) in January 2010. "Primary advantages a subscriber can receive with MFCRE over a national 

company are local decision making, competitive pricing and a carry‐over of the productivity tools also 

offered on the residential MLS," says Chandler.  

 

During his time off, Chandler is a true Floridian. With his family, he enjoys the state's natural beauty and 

the recreational settings around Lakeland and Tampa Bay. Like a seasoned real estate agent who knows

the location of the region's hidden gems, he enjoys discovering the lesser‐known waterways and fishing 

locations.
