Matt Difanis on Clubhouse

Bio

Matt served as 2020 Chair of NAR's Professional Standards Committee, where he advanced a series of proposals that ultimately resulted in the addition of Standard of Practice 10-5 to the NAR Code of Ethics, a prohibition against REALTORS® engaging in discriminatory hate speech. Matt is 2021 Chair of the Professional Standards Interpretations and Procedures Advisory Board.

He served as 2018 President of the Illinois REALTORS®. During his four years on his state leadership team, he gradually became aware of
the industry’s persistent shortcomings in diversity, equity and inclusion, and he committed himself to improving it. Matt has since won numerous awards for his work on fair housing and inclusion in the
industry.

Matt works full-time with clients in his home market of Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, where he
leads a high producing team and is broker-owner of RE/MAX Realty Associates.

Matt and his wife Angelle have two teenage children, Gabe and Izzy.
