In this appointment, Getto will attend meetings with the thought leaders of the real estate industry. For the next three years he will be traveling to Washington D.C. for mid-year legislative meetings and to the annual realtors conferences where he will make recommendations on issues relating to the operation of multiple listing services (or MLS) and advise on current developments that could have an impact on the real estate industry.

Currently, he is Churchill County director for the Sierra Nevada Association of Realtors and was named the association’s Realtor of the Year in 2010. Since 2005 he has dedicated his time and energy to the Northern Nevada Regional MLS, serving as president for his second term in 2014.
