Spokane Association of REALTORS

What Spokane Association of REALTORS does

Spokane Association of REALTORS is a regional professional trade association and nonprofit operating as the official local chapter of the National Association of REALTORS (NAR). Headquartered at 1924 North Ash in Spokane, Washington, and founded in 1911, it serves licensed real estate agents, brokers, and managing brokers operating in the Spokane metropolitan area through membership-based access to the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS), professional education, ethics enforcement, advocacy for real property rights, and member support services. Membership comprises 11-50 staff supporting the organization's programs, with member governance exercised through a Board of Directors led by CEO Tiffany Claxton and executive officer Rob Higgins.

The organization's product surface is built around an integrated MLS and services stack: Paragon serves as the core MLS platform delivering live listing data and search; SentriLock provides electronic lockbox and key management; TransactionDesk handles transaction workflows; DomusAnalytics powers the Market Snapshot dashboard and Market Infograph reporting monthly home sales, median prices, inventory, and new listings; IDX and MLS Grid syndicate listing data to member websites; Tangilla Portal hosts SR Printable RE Forms and a Seller Net Proceeds calculator; and a RAMCO-based learning management system delivers 10+ designations and certifications, 100+ microcourses, learning pathways, and a member podcast. Member communications run through Weekly Notices, Gov Affairs Radar, Feed Your Brain, and Managing Broker's Need to Know newsletters, with ethics complaint, ombudsman, and arbitration processes codified via the Code of Ethics framework.

Commercially, the association is funded primarily through annual membership dues charged to real estate professionals for access to MLS services, education, advocacy, and member benefits, supplemented by ancillary revenue from non-member class fees and member-benefit programs. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and requires inquiry through the membership application. Distribution is regional and self-serve via the SR Portal / Paragon environment, supported by 24/7 tech helpline and legal hotline member services. Strategic alliances are anchored with NAR (national affiliation), Washington REALTORS (state-level), and core technology partners including DomusAnalytics and SentriLock, with additional continuing education partnerships through The CE Shop.
