Lori Otter is a familiar name in Idaho. As the former First Lady of the Gem State from 2007 to 2019, Lori is now a successful luxury real estate agent with Amherst Madison Real Estate Advisors. If you are looking to buy or sell, Lori knows Idaho! Growing up in the rural community of Kimberly, Lori attended Idaho schools for her undergrad and graduate studies. After graduation, she taught English, health, and physical education for K-12 in Idaho’s public education system, with a competitive passion for coaching junior high and high school girls’ basketball and volleyball for 13 years in the Meridian School District. When her husband, Governor Butch Otter retired, Lori’s tenure as First Lady ended, but she continues to pursue public service. Today, she participates as a member of the St. Alphonsus Foundation Board and Truth 208: Straight Talk about Medicine Abuse. Currently, she is now serving as Chief Executive Director of Idaho Women in Leadership. In other words, Lori remains committed to serving the communities of Idaho. Real estate is where Lori has found success across the state in her third career. In her first year in the industry, she ranked in the top 14% of agents and earned placement in the Honor Society at Berkshire Hathaway. In her second year, she received her Certified Luxury Marketing Home Specialist designation and was on the Honor Roll again. She approaches real estate and serves her clients with the same commitment and purpose she displayed as First Lady, helping Idahoans achieve their real estate goals and dreams.
