Realtor Certifications/Designations
If you take a look at any Realtor’s website or business card, you’ll often see their name accompanied by acronyms. They show proof of ability and accomplishments. We pride ourselves in our education and certifications; we always aim to be well-rounded experts to best serve our clients’ needs. Here are what these certifications mean:
