History of Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS

The Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS was founded in 1926 as the Baton Rouge Real Estate Board, incorporated in 1941 as the Baton Rouge Real Estate Board, Inc., a not for profit corporation, and changed the name to Baton Rouge Board of REALTORS in 1951. In 1992 the name was changed to Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS, Inc. In 1958 the Board applied for and was granted tax exemption status from the IRS as a 501(c) 6 organization. Some years later that exemption was not renewed and the Association currently operates as a regular for profit corporation, although the object of the Association is not now nor has it ever been to make a profit. We have grown from a small club of about 25 members to a large association of nearly 3000 members and a budget of virtually nothing to a multi-million dollar budget.
