This award is given annually to a Designated REALTOR® or managing broker in recognition of his or her individual achievements in their role, as well as their commitment to the industry. The winner of this award is nominated by a fellow BRR member and selected by the Awards Committee — which is an impartial panel made up of past presidents and past winners of other BRR awards.
The Awards Committee reviews all nominations, taking into consideration each nominee’s involvement in the community and participation in local, state, and national associations. The Committee may also refer to association and MLS records to consider the nominee’s industry spirit and business accomplishments, including but not limited to past awards received; participation in the BRR Honor Society; responsiveness to local, state, and national Calls-to-Action; investments made to the REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) or BRR’s Foundation; and/or, annual production. There are no minimum levels of participation, investments, sales, required to be eligible.

- Members cited for an ethics violation (handled by Idaho REALTORS®) or a license law violation (handled by IREC) within the past two (2) years may be ineligible.
