Annually, each state REALTOR® association recognizes one member who has done exceptional work to advance their associations and the real estate industry with the REALTOR® of the Year award. These members epitomize what it means to be a REALTOR®.
Questions regarding NAR’s recognition of the State REALTOR® of the Year may be directed to Andrew Scoulas at ascoulas@nar.realtor. If you have questions regarding your local or state association’s REALTOR® of the Year awards you will want to contact your local or state association directly. There is no National REALTOR® of the Year award.
