The President’s Message
By Ian Anderson
It’s YOUR Turn To Be A Leader
In my second to last President’s Message, I want to
explain a program DBAAR offers, and encourage all members to consider being involved in — our Leadership
Academy.
In 2009, we created this program to help develop
future leaders for our association. I was fortunate enough
to be a part of the inaugural class in the academy (see
the picture of the newsletter cover story),
and it sent me along a path that culminated in my being your President this
year.
While one of my fellow students that
year is no longer active in our association,
the other two are. Nancy Cortez is part of
the 2015 Leadership Team, serving as
Vice Chair of the MLS Committee next
year. And Maria De Sevilla was recently
elected as your Treasurer for 2015.
What is the Leadership Academy?
Simply put, it’s a one-year training and
development program designed to help a
member understand how our association
works, and what it takes to be a leader.
So who can apply? All REALTOR®
members in good standing can apply.
All we ask of the participants is that they demonstrate a
commitment to the Academy by attending all of the sessions listed in the schedule.
So what’s the benefit to the participants? Participants
gain a clear understanding of the organizational structure
of all three levels of the REALTOR® association and the
challenges of leadership. The Academy provides an opportunity to ask direct questions, meet current REALTOR® leaders, and come to understand how the organization strives to provide advantages to members in a
changing marketplace. This helps increase their knowledge of current REALTOR® initiatives and aids in finding
their purpose in the organization. Finally, participants
benefit both personally and professionally through increased industry knowledge, self confidence, and peer-topeer business networking.
I’ve been asked before whether participating in the
Leadership Academy guarantees you get on the Board of
Page 3
Directors. The short answer is no. While Leadership Academy graduates are encouraged to apply for leadership
positions within the association, there’s no guarantee because the process of electing members to the officer positions, the Board of Directors, and the President’s appointment of committee chairs and vice chairs hasn’t changed.
All you have to do to apply is complete an application
and submit it to the Leadership Development Committee. Applications are available
online in the members-only section of
www.DaytonaRealtors.com.
Here’s how our Leadership Academy is
very different from other programs. At the
state level, REALTORS® pay to get involved in leadership training. And at the
national level, REALTORS® pay a lot to be
part of the NAR program.
In our program, Leadership Academy
participants are reimbursed for approved
program expenses, such as mileage or hotel charges. Registration and/or membership fees are paid by DBAAR directly to the
appropriate party on behalf of the participant.
So all it costs you to participate in our
Leadership Academy is your time and effort.
Believe me, I can’t think of a better deal. I’ve served
as President of our local association, I’m active at the
state level, and next year I’m chairing a committee at
NAR. All because I got involved with our Leadership Academy. Now, it’s your turn.
It’s been a great, once in a lifetime experience, and I
encourage you to think about it.
If you have any questions about the DBAAR Leadership Academy, call 386.677.7131 for answers.

Fed’s final QRM mortgage rule should help sales
The mortgage-financing environment for households
could improve as a result of federal regulator rules put in
place late last month.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is
the first of six regulators to release the final version of its
long-awaited qualified residential mortgage (QRM) rule,
which a big 2010 banking reform bill mandated to avoid
another financial crisis.
The QRM rule creates a set of mortgage loan requirements. If it meets those requirements, it's legally considered safe and eligible for sale to investors as part of a
mortgage-backed security without a lender retaining 5
percent of the loan amount on its books.
Page 7
Without the 5 percent requirement – a mandate that
would force banks to accept part of the risk if a homebuyer defaults – lenders should be able to make more
loans, and those loans should be cheaper. If forced to
retain the 5 percent, lenders would push the cost of that
risk on to buyers.
The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) has
been advocating for a rule similar to the one announced,
saying it should be broad rather than prescriptive, and
that it should match up with the qualified mortgage (QM)
rule that took effect earlier this year.
The QRM rule does, in fact, do that. The QM rule also
provides ability-to-repay standards for safe and affordable

Fed’s final QRM mortgage rule should help sales
(Continued from Page 7)
loans, whether or not they're securitized for sale to investors.
"NAR applauds the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for finalizing the Qualified Residential Mortgage
rule today, which includes a broad definition of QRM and
aligns with the Qualified Mortgage standard implemented
earlier this year," NAR President Steve Brown said.
Under the QRM rule, as under the QM rule, loans are
generally considered qualified if the borrower's debt-toincome ratio is 43 percent, among other things, and
there's no high downpayment requirement.
"Importantly, the final rule relies on sound and responsible underwriting, rather than on an onerous downpayment requirement to qualify as a QRM loan," Brown
said. "NAR strongly opposed earlier versions of the rule
Page 11
that included 20 and 30 percent downpayment requirements."
The rule takes effect in 12 months to give lenders
time to align their internal processing systems with the
requirements. Since lenders have already been aligning
their systems to the QM rule, the process is expected to
go smoothly.
For lenders, having the two rules in alignment provides clarity, which they've requested.
At a press conference Tuesday, NAR Chief Economist
Lawrence Yun said the alignment of the QM and QRM
rules could help make credit more available to homebuyers and boost sales.
"Certainly this is a victory for consumers," Yun says.

Business Partner Spotlight
Tom started in the insurance
industry in 1974. He started his
career with Allstate in the Sears
Department store at the Volusia
Mall. Fast forward 40 years and
Tom finds himself starting a new
business venture, opening up an
independent insurance agency,
O’Quinn Insurance Services,
LLC. In 2009, Tom sold his
Tom O’Quinn
Allstate-O’Quinn Insurance
Agency to his son, Brent O’Quinn. Tom has stayed very
active in the marketing of the business throughout
Volusia and Flagler County and began to see an opportunity to open up an Independent Insurance Agency
that can service all types of insurance risks.
O’Quinn Insurance Services, LLC offers a significant
range of options in all lines of insurance. From car insurance options such as Travelers, Progressive, Infinity,
Foremost and Mercury, he has a carrier that can fit into
any budget and level of coverage. On the home insurance front, O’Quinn Insurance Services, LLC represent
only AM best and Demotech A rated carriers. Florida
Family, Florida Peninsula, Olympus, Safe Point, Bankers, Universal P&C and People’s Trust are a few of the
companies represented. The objective on the range of
carriers is to be able to offer an insurance product for
all needs and priorities of its clients. Tom can also meet
any commercial needs of a business enterprise from a
simple GL policy to a vacant commercial building and
everything in between.
Tom has hired Andrew Van der Burgt to manage
the O’Quinn Insurance Services, LLC agency. Andrew
has an extensive background in management, customer
service and business operations. Most recently, Andrew
owned a California Closets franchise from 2002 until
2013. Tom’s passion and focus will be in the marketing
and daily promotion of the business while Andrew will
focus on sales, customer service and ever changing
technology improvements in the industry.
The O’Quinn family prides itself on its high level of
customer service as well as being involved in the community. In an industry that is being defined by web
sites and national pitchmen (or reptiles), O’Quinn Insurance Services will follow the same recipe for success as
it has in the past by putting the client service experience as the top priority. In addition to service, being
involved in the community will also be a priority. We
feel that it is extremely important to give back to the
community that supports us. Tom and the O’Quinn family participate actively in the community with such great
programs as Family Renew, REALTORS® Sold 4 The
