- The following rules will be followed in awarding the ROTY award:
  
  1. No more than one Texas REALTOR® may be awarded the ROTY each year.
  2. The Texas REALTORS® ROTY Committee is charged with selecting a REALTOR® of the Year. The Committee may choose to not award a REALTOR® of the Year for any year that no qualified member is nominated.
  3. To be eligible for consideration, a nominee must be a Texas REALTORS® member.
  4. Texas REALTORS® will solicit nominations from local board* Presidents and AEs at least sixty (60) days prior to the deadline to submit nominations. (*“Board” as used throughout this document refers to local associations and boards in Texas.) Nominations and/or recommendations in support of a nominee will be accepted only from the local President and/or the Association Executive of the nominating board and the nominee’s primary board. Self-nominations and nominations by Texas REALTORS® member(s) will not be accepted.
  5. Each Texas local board may submit or support only one nomination. A local board may nominate a member who holds primary membership in any Texas local board; however, a nominee will not be considered unless the nominee’s primary board also provides written support of the nomination, which then becomes that board’s one nomination.
  6. Each local board is encouraged to nominate their local qualified REALTOR® of the Year award winner (current or previous) or another qualified member. Serving as a Texas REALTORS® chairman is not a requirement.
  7. Nominations and supporting documentation must be submitted online at least 60 days prior to the date the award is presented and must include a recent photograph in a digital format.
  8. Members of the Texas REALTORS® Leadership Team are not eligible for nomination until two (2) years after the end of their term as Chairman.
  9. Texas REALTORS® will make reasonable efforts to keep the award decision confidential from the award winner but may need to contact the winner or the winner’s family for assistance in planning the presentation of the award.
