Eligibility for Real Estate Achievement and Leadership Awards

Eligibility for the Real Estate Achievement and Leadership awards is based on 2025 sales closed by agents who belong to a San Diego County REALTOR® Association. PSAR members are automatically considered using CRMLS data. Agents from other associations may become eligible by joining PSAR as Secondary REALTOR® members. No additional fees are required. If you are a PSAR member, believe you meet the criteria, and did not receive an email, please contact awards@psar.org.

Award Criteria

Awards are based on the greater of sales volume or units sold, as recorded in the MLS for 2025. For transactions in other MLS systems that may not be included, agents must provide proof of any missing sales. Acceptable proof consists of a gross commission report or an MLS report.

If you received an announcement email stating your award status as 1%, 3%, 5%, or 10%, and you agree your production matches the criteria below, no further action is required.

Individual Production:

Only the primary agent production is recognized for the award. Co-agents' sales are not included.
Sale volume or transaction side credit is given only to the primary agent, as shown in the CRMLS.
All agents who belong to associations in San Diego County are included in the percentage ranking calculation.

Team Production*:

A lead agent may have a team recognized instead.
The entire team is recognized instead of an individual. Teams receive the award collectively, and individual awards are forfeited for each member of the team. Only production from PSAR members of a team will be counted.
Teams must follow C.A.R. rules governing team names. Details about qualifications may be found at these links: Team Name Quick Guide | Team Name Q&A
To calculate the team production needed for Top 1%, 3%, 5%, and 10%, each team member is required to produce one-quarter more in production*.

Team Production Needed = Individual production criteria + (Individual production criteria X .25 X Number of team members)

Example using the 2026 REAL Awards criteria below for a team of 3:
