October 31, 2025 - This communication serves as official notice to Members of the Greater Albuquerque Association of REALTORS® and Participants of the Southwest Multiple Listing Service that the 2025 GAAR & SWMLS Annual Meeting will be held on Wednesday, December 3, 2025.
In addition, the SWMLS Board has proposed changes to the current SWMLS Bylaws. Only Designated REALTORS® are eligible to vote and will be issued a ballot upon registration that will allow you to approve all changes.
Proposed SWMLS Bylaws Changes
Article 6.2 - Board of Directors of the Service
Rationale for Bylaw Change
As per the SWMLS Bylaws, the SWMLS Board must maintain a majority of Participants over Subscribers but preserves dedicated seats for Subscribers to ensure their perspective is maintained. This further clarifies that the GAAR President does not affect the Firm or Participant/Subscriber count.
Article 6.2 - Board of Directors of the Service

Rationale for Bylaw Change
The SWMLS Board increased the minimum qualifications for serving on the SWMLS Board. In addition, they clarified the need for direct experience with SWMLS processes and proceedures or service on select GAAR committees or programs.
