As CEO of Washington’s NWMLS, Hurdelbrink oversees one of the nation’s largest MLSs, which has nearly 32,000 subscribers, with an innovative approach. The MLS was one of the first to implement the Clear Cooperation Policy and, in 2019, it started making buyers-agent commissions available to its member brokers to publish on their consumer-facing listing sites. Hurdlebrink is a member of the MLS think tank The MLS Roundtable.
