The Illinois REALTORS® Young Professionals Network (YPN) was honored as the 2019 State Network of the Year by the National Association of REALTORS® in November.

The recognition took place at the REALTOR® Conference & Expo in San Francisco. Each year, NAR gives out YPN Network of the Year awards in several categories: small (less than 2,000 members), medium (2,000 to 5,000 members) and state. In 2019, NAR added the “mega” category for associations with more than 10,000 members.

Illinois YPN’s biggest goal is to provide value to its members by providing education or networking opportunities that are going to benefit them. Whether it’s a panel on how to thrive through market shifts or how to expand their network with Industry Partner networks, they sought to provide usable tips and tools for members to use.
