Ennis Antoine, sales manager and managing broker at Compass of Greater Atlanta‘s Buckhead office, received a Meritorious Service Award for the legislative and regulatory work he did for the National Association of REALTORS® as a Federal Political Coordinator (FPC). 

Antoine was one of two FPCs selected from the total pool of 535 FPCs for special recognition of  their work fostering vibrant, sustainable communities throughout the country. Each FPC serves as a conduit between members of Congress and their respective real estate markets. 

“Ennis was selected for this award because of his commitment to Atlanta, his deep appreciation of how policies decided in Washington impact consumers throughout Georgia and for his tireless work to make sure NAR can achieve our goals on Capitol Hill and throughout all levels of U.S. government,” NAR President Leslie Rouda Smith said in a press release. 

To be eligible for the award, candidates must have served as an FPC for at least four consecutive years or eight total years; demonstrate effectiveness as the representative of the Realtor® Party and all national real estate issues; and participate in local political events on behalf of their member of Congress.
