Zephyr Real Estate’s Chris Backer Is Marin Association of Realtors New President


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Earlier this month at the 100th Marin Association of Realtors Installation Luncheon and Awards Ceremony, Chris Backer was installed as President of Marin Realtors. Backer has been a top-producing realtor at Zephyr’s Marin office ever since it opened in 2015.

His first speech as President began with the year in review including the hiring of a new CEO for the Association and an outline of the key steps the Association is taking to rebrand in its 100th year. The organization’s new name will be Marin Realtors, which will be launched in January 2020. Backer’s speech was well received with lengthy applause from the 200+ agents in attendance.

Backer has a strong background in the legal aspects of real estate and is committed to providing excellent representation to his clients and creating a pleasant and successful transaction. He is a Bay Area native, and attended U.C. Davis. He enjoys hiking, snowboarding, fly-fishing, golf, and all outdoor activities. He is an avid fan of the San Francisco Giants as well as all the Bay Area professional sports team, although he is always quick to point out that the Giants are his favorite.

He volunteers on various Boards of Directors including Marin Realtors, California Association of Realtors, and the UC Davis Young Alumni Board of the College of Letters and Science. In these roles, he advocates for local and statewide private property rights on the Realtor boards, as well as mentoring new alumni from UC Davis in the Bay Area.
