Have you been a REALTOR® for 40 or more c**ulative years?

Were you also a volunteer or in association leadership during that time? You may qualify for REALTOR® Emeritus!

The deadline to complete the certification application for REALTOR® Emeritus status for approval in May 2021  is Friday, April 2.

The emeritus status recognizes REALTOR® members who have a collective period of 40 years of membership and have completed at least one year of service at the national association level. For applications filed in 2021, you can also meet the one-year service requirement through service at the state or local level. Beginning in 2020, NAR will accept only national service to fulfill the service requirement.

For more information, email emeritus@realtors.org or call 800-874-6500, or read about it online. For assistance completing your application, contact Liz Parks at lparks@weserv.realtor or 623-931-9294.

Certified REALTOR® Emeritus members do not pay dues to the national association and are exempt from the NAR Code of Ethics Training requirement. Applications are online at nar.realtor and must be filled out by the association. The dues waiver does not take effect until the following 'dues season.'
