Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED), one of the nation’s largest multiple listing services (MLSs), is proud to announce that the Egyptian Board of REALTORS® (EBOR) has officially become a chapter of the Mid-Illinois REALTORS® Association (MIRA). This partnership will provide EBOR’s more than 400 members with MRED’s expansive tools, technology, and services to help real estate professionals grow their businesses and better serve their clients.
This exciting news represents a major milestone in both scale and significance. The Egyptian Chapter of the Mid-Illinois REALTORS® Association covers 27 counties in southern Illinois, from Fayette County in the north to Alexander County in the south, representing the largest geographical real estate board jurisdiction in the United States.
“We’re excited to welcome the Egyptian Chapter of MIRA to the MRED family,” said MRED President and CEO Rebecca Jensen. “This partnership goes a long way to remove unnecessary barriers to data for agents and brokerages, and we commend EBOR and MIRA for their leadership. Together, we’re building a stronger real estate community that benefits both professionals and consumers.”
“This merger was built on capability and culture. Our association offerings, combined with MRED’s industry-leading MLS services, create undeniable value for Egyptian chapter members,” said MIRA CEO Diane Cote. “The cultural fit we discovered through this process—our shared dedication to elevating the professional experience and delivering real value to our REALTOR® members and their local communities—truly sealed this partnership. Together we support REALTORS® in 30 Illinois counties!”
“By coming together, we’re expanding what we can offer our members — more education, more networking, and a stronger collective voice for real estate professionals across our region,” said EBOR President Paula Arpasi.
This chapter integration marks another milestone in MRED’s ongoing growth and innovation across the region. Other recent milestones include welcoming the Quad City Area REALTORS® as a new association partner and expanding data-sharing initiatives through a collaboration with RMLS Alliance. These efforts underscore MRED’s borderless commitment to strategic leadership in advancing technology and delivering unmatched value to real estate professionals.
