“Service to Boise Regional REALTORS® has defined my career in real estate. It has provided me fulfillment in ways I could not have imagined or expected. Serving BRR as an NAR Director would be the ultimate privilege.  Giving voice to our members on the national stage, and representing Boise Regional REALTORS® to NAR is so essential to ensuring that BRR’s example of excellence in leadership continues to be acknowledged by our peers in the industry. I have been honored to serve BRR in so many leadership roles that I believe I am uniquely qualified to represent our members with a background and expertise that our members deserve.” — Phil Mount
