We’re pleased to announce that applications for the 2025 Circle of Excellence (COE) Awards are now open, and will remain open through Tuesday, October 14.
All award applications must be submitted online through your Member Portal. This will allow agents who have completed their COE year (October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025) to start filling out their applications once their closings are completed for the award qualifying period.
Please take a moment to review the updated rules and important changes for this year’s program. While award levels remain the same, several key revisions have been made that may impact your eligibility or recognition.
- 2025 COE Rules (Section 1.2): Only individual recipients will receive first-time recognition at the awards ceremony. If someone receives the award as part of a team and branches off to become an individual agent, that agent is NOT considered a first-time recipient.
- 2025 COE Rules (Section 1.5): Any application received after 5:00 P.M. on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 will not be eligible. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Notable Updates for 2025:
- Invoices will be emailed directly to applicants after the October 14 deadline. Designated REALTORS®/Office Delegates may bulk pay through the Member Portal.
- If your office covers the COE application fee, please confirm this directly with your Office Manager, as policies vary by brokerage.
- All applications will be reviewed for accuracy and membership compliance.

Application Requirements:
- Agents and Team Leads must apply through their personal Member Portal.
