About Glen Baird & VirginiaMLS.com

In the 1990s, Glen saw a fundamental problem in real estate advertising—traditional print media was slow, inefficient, and expensive. It often took 3 to 10 days for listings to go from concept to publication, delaying opportunities for buyers and sellers alike. Frustrated by these limitations and driven by a passion for transparency, especially regarding commissions, Glen set out to revolutionize the industry.

As real estate shifted online, many companies imposed restrictive sign-ups, intrusive ads, and limited search capabilities, while keeping commission rates hidden. Glen believed there was a better way—a platform that prioritized open access, efficiency, and honesty.

The Birth of VirginiaMLS.com

In 1999, Glen founded VirginiaMLS.com, recognizing the internet’s potential to transform real estate transactions. His vision was simple yet groundbreaking:

An open, user-friendly platform where anyone can freely list and search for properties
No intrusive ads or sign-up barriers—just seamless property browsing
Transparent commissions, ensuring fairness for both buyers and sellers
Lower costs through digital efficiency, reducing the financial burden of real estate transactions

Despite industry pushback, Glen stayed committed to creating an accessible, cost-effective solution. By embracing digital innovation, VirginiaMLS.com has helped buyers and sellers save thousands in commission fees while simplifying the real estate process.

A Vision for the Future

Looking ahead, Glen envisions a fully automated real estate experience, where essential documents, disclosures, and compliance requirements are seamlessly integrated into online transactions. His mission is to make buying and selling real estate easier, faster, and more affordable.
