SARASOTA, Fla. (September 28, 2020) – Florida REALTORS® established an Honor Society thirty years ago to recognize members of local boards and Associations who are active in their state Association. The Honor Society also salutes members for participation at the local and national levels of the Realtor® organization; for activity in the National Association of REALTORS®, Institutes, Societies and Councils; for designations earned, educational activities, and political involvement. Statewide, several hundred select members qualified for this recognition.
