These Realtors are Florida Realtors® Board Certified Professionals

While most Realtors possess many of these traits, a select few deliver an extremely high level of service combined with world-class skills, developed and fortified by decades of industry knowledge and experience. They combine a strong moral compass with an incredibly DEEP connection to their community. And they support legislators who support home ownership. 

The Board Certified Professional Endorsement is no longer accepting new applicants. Those who have already earned the endorsement will retain it without the need for future recertification.

What is a Florida Realtors Board Certified Professional?

Board Certified Logo

Almost half a million Floridians possess a real estate license. Another 238,000 practitioners adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and therefore earn the title of “Realtor.” 

Florida Realtors, the largest professional trade association in the state and the largest state Realtor organization in the country, established the Florida Realtors Board Certified Professional endorsement in 2023 as a way to acknowledge Realtor members who work at the highest level of real estate professionalism.

Board Certified Professional applicants were evaluated by a cross-section of their peers to see if they meet a rigorous bar set on:

  • Competence and professionalism
  • Transactional knowledge
  • Community involvement
  • Advocacy efforts
  • Adherence to legal and ethical standards
  • Number and volume of real estate transactions
