Santa Barbara Realtor Diana Bull Receives Highest National Honor

The National Association of REALTORS® has named Santa Barbara Realtor Diana Bull a 2020 Distinguished Service Award recipient. This national award is the highest honor bestowed by the association, awarded to only two people annually from more than 1.4 million members nationwide. The award recognizes Realtors who have made outstanding contributions to the real estate industry and have set themselves apart as leaders. Bull is the first California female Distinguished Service Award recipient in the association’s 112-year history.

“I am so very humbled, honored, and grateful to receive this award,” stated Bull. “I have always said that “the people you meet along the journey make it all worthwhile,” and I have been blessed with many treasured friendships and experiences, for which I am sincerely appreciative.”

Bull began her real estate career in 1971 at the age of 22 and became a broker just two years later. She owned and managed her own real estate and mortgage companies for more than 40 years. She served as President of the Santa Barbara Association of REALTORS® in 1982, and has been involved at the local, state, and national level ever since.
