The Nevada REALTORS® Leadership Academy just graduated its 2022 class during installation weekend festivities in southern Nevada earlier this month. And with the beginning of a new year on the horizon, that means the 2023 class will soon be starting its leadership journey.
In fact, the list of NVR's 2023 Leadership Class members was released last week and it features REALTORS® from across the Silver State. Twelve class members will come from Clark County. Six will hail from the Truckee Meadows region of Reno-Sparks-Carson-Douglas. Lastly, the Incline and Elko associations will both sponsor one member.
"We've got a balanced class roster full of REALTOR® members who are established in the field and looking to learn more about leadership," NVR's staff liaison Tiffany Banks said. "Given the backgrounds and strengths of these 20 class members, I expect another great upcoming year of programming and learning."
The Leadership Academy is a year-long program that meets four times a year in various locations and addresses a variety of areas of personal and business growth, including public speaking and team building. The first of the Academy's traditional four programs will take place next month. You can learn more about the Leadership Academy here.

Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist and senior vice president of research, forecasts that 4.78 million existing homes will be sold, prices will remain stable, and Atlanta will be the top real estate market to watch in 2023 and beyond.

Yun predicts home sales will decline by 6.8% compared to 2022 (5.13 million) and the median home price will reach $385,800 – an increase of just 0.3% from this year ($384,500).
