![MLS Insight: Parting Thoughts]()

This will be the final entry in the series MLS Insight, about how things work at RMLS™.
Just over 24 years ago, I joined the RMLS™ staff as its seventh employee. I came on board when RMLS™ was just one year old! Today, RMLS™ is a vibrant organization celebrating its 25th anniversary, but I will no longer have a front row seat as I am retiring at the end of this month.
In 1992, I answered an ad for a part-time Administrative Secretary. My job was to staff the board meetings (take minutes, etc.) and to produce Market Action, which had just started publication. It was prepared much differently then. Reports were run from the old Stellar system and then the results were retyped into a Pagemaker file for publication. There was a lot of proofreading needed! Two people would sit and read numbers back and forth for a few hours each month.
I have not missed but maybe two or three board meetings in the last 24 years, and, if you know a current or former RMLS™ Director, I think you should say “Thank you!” I don’t think you could find a steadier, more thoughtful or dedicated group of volunteer leaders.
I will miss my workmates. The RMLS™ staff is a wonderful group. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to connect with many of our subscribers, and it has been my pleasure to serve the REALTOR® community. Best wishes to you all.

Meet My.RMLS.com.
RMLS™ will soon introduce this all-new payment system on RMLSweb—but the rollout will be a bit more gradual than originally reported in order to make the transition less disruptive to RMLS™ subscribers.
Instead of rolling out the new system in full on Tuesday, RMLS™ subscribers will have a week (May 24-May 30) to sort out their new login credentials. Beginning May 24, RMLSweb will offer subscribers the option of logging in with their existing RMLSweb credentials OR by using their email address and password.
IMPORTANT: Verify Your Login Information This Week
Beginning Tuesday, May 24th, subscribers are highly encouraged to log in to My.RMLS.com using their new login credentials to verify their information. Users will need to log in using the email address associated with their account and their existing RMLSweb password (Private ID). Once logged in, the system will require a password change.
The email address for logging in will be the one most recently specified in the Association Email address on Internet Member Services. RMLS™ recently sent an email to current subscribers about verifying/changing this address in preparation for this system change.
RMLS™ subscribers who do not verify their login credentials on My.RMLS.com before Tuesday, May 31st risk experiencing disruption to their business once the new system is live.
Full Rollout on Tuesday, May 31st
At approximately 9am on Tuesday, May 31st, the login screen for RMLSweb will change. All RMLS™ subscribers will log in using their email address and password as verified the previous week on My.RMLS.com.
Due to these changes, RMLS™ billing for the third quarter will take place a week later than usual. Bills will still be due on June 25th.
As always, users experiencing difficulties with verifying their information on My.RMLS.com or just unable to log in should contact the RMLS™ Help Desk at (503) 872-8002 for assistance.
Big transitions can be difficult and result in longer wait times. RMLS™ staff have been trained for this transition and will do their best to assist subscribers quickly. RMLS™ thanks subscribers for their patience during this transition.
UPDATE (May 27, 2016):
Due to some technical issues experienced by users this week, RMLS™ will be delaying the roll-out of the new RMLSweb login screen. RMLS™ subscribers, watch the RMLSweb desktop page this week for the latest developments.
