2024 Award Updates
Rental Calculations
The calculations of rentals to units were changed for both long-term rentals and short-term rentals:
Long Term Rentals
1 Long Term Rental = 1 Unit
Dollar value is the gross value of the lease (e.g. $1,000/month at 12 months=$12,000).
Short Term Rentals
10 Short Term Rentals = 1 Unit
Dollar value is the gross value of the lease (e.g. $1,000/month at 3 months=$3,000).
These new rental calculations apply to both dollar and unit methods and strictly unit methods.
Non-MLS Rental Date
For non-MLS rental transactions, the sale used for transaction eligibility is now the lease start date. Rental transactions listed in the MLS remain as a close date.
Designation/ Certification
All requirements to obtain the designation/certification, including course work, paying application fees, and submitting the application, must be completed between November 4, 2023 and November 15, 2024, and the National Association of REALTORS®, or its authorized provider, must confer/report your completion by December 31, 2024.
The NJ Realtors® Distinguished Sales Club Award is presented to NJ Realtors® members who have been recipients of the Circle of Excellence Sales Award® for 10 years (which need not be consecutively earned).
