Stellar MLS, the largest multiple listing service serving Florida and Puerto Rico, announced the official appointment of Shayne Fairley as CEO.

Last July, Farley was announced to become the successor to Merri Jo Cowen, who will continue to serve in a strategic advisory role while also transitioning to a full-time leadership role at Universal Consulting Opportunities, the organization’s global MLS advisory subsidiary that launched in 2024.

Farley joined Stellar MLS in May 2005 and advanced through roles in training, compliance, data services, and operations. He served as chief operations officer since 2017.

“Shayne possesses a deep understanding of Stellar MLS and a leadership style rooted in trust, innovation, and service, which will serve him well as he steps into the role of CEO,” said Cowen. “Over the last few months, as we have been preparing for this transition, he has proven to be the best person for the job. I have every confidence that he will build on our strong foundation and continue to lead the organization forward.”
