As president and CEO of Metropolitan Regional Information Systems (MRIS), David Charron helps the MLS’s nearly 50,000 members facilitate nearly $125 billion in real estate transactions per year. Charron’s real estate column for The Washington Post provides sharp information on the Washington, D.C., market, and he frequently contributes to other housing publications. In October, the Council of Multiple Listing Services selected him as president-elect in 2017 in hopes of advancing MLSs in North America. All agree: David genuinely cares about the real estate industry.
