About the Awards

The Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS® offers the following awards:

REALTOR® of the Year Award

Candidate must hold REALTOR® membership in a Board of REALTORS® from October 1st of the previous year to September 30th of the current year (the qualifying period) and be a member of the Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS® at the time of nomination. Factors taken into consideration include REALTOR® spirit, civic activity, and business accomplishments.

Affiliate of the Year Award

This award was created in 1991 to be given to the Affiliate member of the Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS® who has made the greatest contribution of time, energy and resource to the Board during the calendar year. A personalized plaque will indicate the name and purpose of the award, to whom, from whom, and the date of the presentation.

Henry H. Robinson Award

The Henry H. Robinson Award is given each year to the individual, institution, or firm who has done the most for real estate in Atlanta during the calendar year. The major criterion for this award is that it must be given to someone outside Board membership, thereby promoting the REALTOR® image in the community.

The Community Service Award

The Community Service Award has been established by the Community Service Committee of the Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS® to recognize the ongoing efforts of individual REALTORS® who are making exceptional contributions to improve the quality of life in their community. Among the activities that qualify for consideration are involvement in improving the quality of education in an area, supporting initiatives aimed at a community's youth, and work on any other community-based program(s).

One winner will be selected, and will receive a $1,000 grant in their name to their selected community project, and earn the right to use the Community Service Award Logo on their Website and promotional materials. This award was created to reward our local REALTORS® for contributing to their communities, something so many of them do without any recognition.

Million Dollar Club

Members of the Million Dollar Club exemplify the highest caliber of real estate professionalism and service. The Club honors those REALTORS® who have produced real estate volume production of three million dollars or more in commercial sales and leasing activity. More »
