GAR Awards
Each year, GAR recognizes outstanding service to our organization in several categories: Realtor® of the Year, Realtor® Brokerage of the Year, Affiliate of the Year, and Affiliate Company of the Year. In addition, GAR has several other awards that may be awarded if a participant in that category is nominated for recognition by a GAR member. The winners of these awards have demonstrated a commitment to GAR with 75% association service, NC Realtors, and NAR and have reaffirmed the higher ethical code that Realtors® subscribe. Join GAR in congratulating our current year's winners.
