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 e
xemption 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.
