RESO Chair Rebecca Jensen plans to leave position
Rebecca Jensen, CEO of Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED), plans to leave the Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO) chair position at the end of the year. Jensen, who has served as chair twice, recently testified in the Zillow/MRED/Compass lawsuit.
“She will remain Board Chair until the end of the year, but our board election happens before then, so we don’t want to give people a long opportunity to think about where they might fit into RESO leadership,” a RESO spokesperson told RISMedia. “We don’t want a void there. Additionally, she will stay on the board, so this isn’t goodbye.”
