The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver awarded realtor Sandra Wyant the Professional Excellence Award this past week.
Wyant is with RE/MAX LifeStyles Realty in Maple Ridge.
The award, presented at the Medallion Club Awards dinner at the Vancouver Convention Centre, is REBGV’s highest honour. Wyant was nominated by her peers and chosen by a panel of judges. The winner must meet strict requirements of professionalism, ethics, and community involvement.
“Sandra is the epitome of what the Professional Excellence Award represents,” said Darcy McLeod, REBGV president. “Her dedication to her profession and to her community has made her a recognized leader for many years.”
She has spent several years helping to lead and shape the real estate profession. She was one of the first instructors in the profession’s Ethical Leadership Program.
Wyant has volunteered as a director of the B.C. Real Estate Association and the REBGV. She served as REBGV president for the 2013-2014 term.
Beyond real estate, Wyant is also known as a community builder. She has volunteered countless hours as a member of the Community Advisory Council at the Salvation Army Ridge Meadows Ministries. She was also instrumental in forming the Costa Rica Kids School Sponsorship Program that supports underprivileged children in Costa Rica. Wyant has made several trips to Costa Rica to lend a helping hand.
