Biography for Teresa McKee
As General Legal Counsel for the Nevada Association of REALTORS®, Teresa handles corporate issues, the Board of Directors, multiple NVAR committees and workgroups and the special duties of government affairs and legislative counsel. When the Legislature is in Session, she is part of the “on-the-ground” lobbying team for NVAR.
Under a new NVAR Strategic Plan objective aimed at offering greater services to NVAR brokers, Teresa has lectured this year at many local associations and brokerages on Legal Aspects of New Legislation, including Deficiencies and the changes to the SRPD and Asset Managers. She has also written numerous articles on these and other legal topics in NVAR’s weekly E-news.
Teresa is also responsible for monitoring of the Nevada Real Estate Division and the three Commissions under that Division. She has been a member of the Real Estate Commission Minimum Services Task Force, the Real Estate Commission Broker Price Opinion Task Force, and Real Estate Division Education Workgroup. These groups created statutory and regulatory recommendations to the Real Estate Commission.
Teresa graduated from Carroll College in Helen Montana in 1989 with a degree in Communications and from Willamette University College of Law in Salem Oregon in 1992. After 13 years as a bankruptcy attorney, Teresa decided to capitalize on the real estate experience she gained in the practice of bankruptcy law by joining the Nevada Association of REALTORS® in 2005 to practice in the real estate profession full time.
