To obtain the GRI designation, I had to complete 90 hours of classroom instruction, covering subjects such as contract law, professional standards, sales and marketing, finance and risk reduction. I have learned the fundamentals of brokerage and other areas of real estate specialization, allowing me to better serve my prospective clients and customers. Courses were taught by leading real estate instructors from around the country.

Ô I have obtained my ABR Designation (Accredited Buyer Representation) by the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council Inc. of the National Association of REALTORS. As an ABR designee we were required to complete a comprehensive course in buyer representation and an elective course focusing on a buyer representation specialty, both in addition to submitting documentation verifying professional experience.

Ô I have successfully completed the REALTOR e-PRO course, a certification offered by the National Association of REALTORS. As an e-PRO designee, I am recognized as a leader in the practice of Online Real Estate and officially certified as an e-PRO Internet Professional. The e-PRO certification course provides real estate professionals with the technology tools needed to assist consumers in the purchase or sale of a home.

ÔShort Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR) Certification. The SFR certification program is offered by the Real Estate Buyer’s Agent Council (REBAC) of NAR (National Association of Realtors®).

Testimonial from another satisfied client

“Curt, We were very pleased with your professional and friendly assistance in selling the home. Not to mention going out of your way to provide neighborly help to Rose. Gil"

"Curt, It was a pleasure to work with you as well, and we will be passing your name and card to anyone we know looking to buy a home, and of course when we leave the area if you are still around in a few years there is nobody else we would rather have sell for us then you. Take care, Justin and Melissa"

"Curt, James and Denise are really enjoying their new home. Thank you for the great job you did for them! I knew they would be in good hands with you. Sherice"

"Curt, I enjoyed working with you on the sale of the house. You definitely worked hard for your commission. I hope you don't mind but I have given your name to a few friends that may need a Realtor in the future.
Thank you, Alicia"
