Buying or selling a home is one of the most crucial and traumatic transactions of your life. In what can be a confusing and sometimes difficult process, it pays to leave as little to chance as you can. This is a special time but with the help of a professional, you can navigate unknown territory with ease.
The CERTIFIED RESIDENTIAL SPECIALIST (CRS) is a professional designation awarded by the Residential Sales Council, an affiliate of the National Association of Realtors. It is the nationally recognized symbol of residential sales excellence.
Only 4% of all Realtors and Realtor Associates have earned the right to be called a CRS. Only
1 out of 27 Realtors have developed special residential sales skills and enhanced their residential sales knowledge through study, dedication and
experience.
Does it cost more to buy or sale a home with a Certified Residential Specialist? They may have more real estate experience and more training than the average real estate agent, but Certified Residential Specialists don't cost any more. In fact, their expertise may actually save you time and money when you're buying a home or increase your profit when you're selling one. So when you're
looking for a real estate agent, look for a Certified Residential Specialist.
Why should I have my own Accredited Buyer Representative?
Today, many real estate agents and companies are offering to represent the buyer in the real estate transaction. From the initial selection of properties,
all the way through contract negotiations and settlement, you can now have an agent specifically committed to representing your best interest when buying a home.
To attain this designation a real estate practitioner must complete an extensive classroom training program on buyer agency practices and procedures, pass a written examination and submit evidence of practical
experience as a buyer's representative. So...if a real estate transaction is in your future put me, an
Accredited Buyer Representative, to work for you.
