The search commitee's work is overviewed by the executive committee and the board of directors and they cannot proceed without the board of directors reviewing all the candidates and information and approving their recommendation. The organization establishes the compensation of the chief executive officer according to a writtern contract, which is ratified by the board of directors and the executive committee of the board of directors and documented in the board minutes.

“The core purpose of the orlando regional realtor association is to help our members adhere to the ethical and professional standards ratified by the national association of realtors and to help our members in their professional success.”

“The annual public awareness campaign serves to educate today's consumers about the vital role of a realtor throughout the real estate transaction, as well as the many benefits of working with a realtor throughout the process. At the same time, the campaign educates consumers about the real estate transaction, the many benefits of homeownership, and the local housing market. With low inventory and rising prices, buyers are encouraged to contact a realtor to help them secure a home in today's competetive market, while sellers are encouraged to contact a realator to see if they may finally have the equity they need to make a lifestyle change. The communications committee is charged with developing the campaigns' messaging and media buys, which are then approved by the board of directors.”
