She brings her familiarity of housing issues and challenges to the board, as well as her reputation as a well-respected industry leader. She recently was recognized by Inman News as one of the Top 100 Most Influential Real Estate Leaders in 2009, and was named one of Real Estate’s 25 Most Influential Thought Leaders by REALTOR magazine. She also is a popular source of insight on real estate trends, a frequent contributor on news programs and a respected industry speaker for groups across the U.S.
As a member of the Denver Branch Board of Directors, Kelly will provide real-time housing information and advise the bank on economic policies. She’ll serve the remainder of a three-year term that expires in December 2010. Each member of the board is allowed to complete two three-year terms.
