Dawn Pfaff, founder and president of My State MLS, headquartered in Jupiter, Florida, has been selected as a winner of the GlobeSt. Real Estate Forum’s 2021 Woman of Influence award, within the Innovator category. The magazine is a publication for the nation’s leading decision makers in all segments of the commercial property industry.

Pfaff is recognized as an accomplished and impactful leader within commercial and residential real estate and is highlighted in the July/August 2021 issue of the magazine.

“It is a great honor to be named a 2021 Woman of Influence within the Innovator category,” said Pfaff. “I consistently look for new ways to expand or improve our software and services, as well as create new products to benefit our members. My personal goal has always been to sell the best product, at the lowest possible price, to the most people.”

She was honored at the second annual GlobeSt. Women of Influence Awards Dinner, which took place in Park City, Utah on July 22, 2021.

Pfaff is a technology entrepreneur who has been involved in the real estate industry for the past 20 years from nearly every angle possible. She is an appraiser, agent, broker, dealer for manufactured housing, licensed instructor to teach continuing education and investor.

She founded NY State MLS in 2009 to fill a void in the market and offer agents and brokers their own statewide MLS, featuring streamlined listing options, ownership of data and a variety of enhanced tools to fit their unique needs. In 2015, the company expanded to My State MLS in response to a nationwide demand. In December 2020, Pfaff and My State MLS launched MHAuthority.com, a premier website for manufactured housing listings.

Today, My State MLS covers all 50 states and Puerto Rico with more than 50,000 members, making it one of the largest MLS platforms in the country.
