Licensed Real Estate Broker

Obtaining a real estate broker's license requires more education and experience than it takes to earn a real estate salesperson's license. To receive a real estate broker's license, a salesperson is required to take additional courses on top of the sixty hours of pre-licensing classes and passing the exam by the stat’s licensing body.

Real Estate Negotiation Expert® (RENE) 

Real Estate Negotiation Experts have purposely sought out courses to further hone their negotiating skills. They have learned about how to best deal with behind-the-scenes issues, are prepared to handle a wide range of personalities and situations, and excel at sorting out the competing objectives of the parties involved in a transaction. Partnering with a Real Estate Negotiation Expert means working with the best suited professional in the industry who will be determined to secure the best possible outcome for you.

Graduate, Realtor® Institute (GRI) 

The Graduate, REALTOR® Institute symbol is the mark of a real estate professional who has made the commitment to provide a high level of professional services by securing a strong educational foundation. Buying property is a complex and stressful task. In fact, it's often the biggest single investment you will make in your lifetime. At the same time, real estate transactions have become increasingly complicated.
