HISTORY
The New Hampshire Association of REALTOR® Honor Society has been in successful operation since 1980. It is overseen by an Honor Society Working Group of Board Vice Presidents as appointed by the NHAR President and chaired by the NHAR President-Elect.
PURPOSE
The primary purpose of the New Hampshire REALTOR® Honor Society is to encourage board participation among members in order that they might be better educated, active members to serve their customers/clients and in return bring credit to themselves and the real estate industry. The program is designed for both the newer REALTOR® as well as those who have held NHAR membership for a number of years – it is intended to recognize those members who seek education and participate in REALTOR® functions and civic activities.
