Designations and
Certifications:
Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE)
A Certified Distressed Property Expert® has specific understanding of
the complex issues confronting the real estate industry, and the foreclosure
avoidance options available to homeowners. The
prospect of foreclosure can be financially and emotionally devastating, and
often homeowners proceed without guidance of any kind. The developers of the
CDPE Designation believe that the best course of action for a homeowner in
distress is to speak with a well-informed, licensed real estate professional.
They have the tools needed to help homeowners find the best solution for their
situation. Often, when other options have been exhausted, CDPEs can help
homeowners avoid foreclosure through the efficient execution of a
short sales.
CDPEs don’t merely assist in selling properties, they serve
and help save their clients in need.
Graduate, REALTOR®
Institute (GRI)
The curriculum required to achieve the designation is a specific, intensive
series of a minimum of 90 hours of classroom instruction, covering a variety of
subjects including: contract law, professional standards, sales and marketing,
finance, and risk reduction, the fundamentals of brokerage and other areas of
real estate specialization. With this title and through increased awareness of
current topics important to the real estate professional, such as legal issues,
I can better serve prospective clients and customers with a professional
education foundation. The coursework taught by leading real estate professionals
from around the country and is designed to educate practitioners about local,
state and national real estate practices that affect them, their clients and
customers.
Certified Buyer Representative
Agents represent the Seller on the properties they list. Buyers want their own representation. Representation of Buyers
is difficult for some agents, sellers, and buyers to understand. Buyer Agency is
fairly new in Massachusetts and in my market area. I am not only practicing but
helping to educate and promote representation of buyers in my daily work. This certification
taught me the standards to
represent a Buyer correctly and wholeheartedly. At the same time I am better
equipped to represent Sellers since this training is about representation.
e-PRO
A training program, presented entirely online, that certified
me as an Internet Professional. I've learned what
consumers want in their on-line Real Estate experience. Why Use An
e-PRO?
At Home With DiversitySM : One America
America is becoming an increasingly multicultural society. The rapidly growing
population of minorities and immigrants consider buying a
home a top priority. For many families
homeownership serves as a stepping stone to prosperity and represents the
American way of life. Expanding homeownership will strengthen our nation's
families and communities. This designation is awarded to members of the National Association of REALTORS® who
complete the training program, and personally commit to the One America
Principles. NAR publicly promotes the REALTOR® role in
providing equal and affordable housing opportunities for all Americans through a
variety of programs.

Acknowledgement
While exploring many diverse areas of work and education in my "previous life",
my dream was always to be the owner of my own business, so that I could give every customer the
service they wished for. Now I am doing it! I'm a hard worker, I’m great with
details, and enjoy helping others. Real Estate, for me, is the perfect
combination of challenging work plus the satisfaction of making a difference in
people’s lives. My goal is to go the extra mile and make the buying and selling
process easier. I have a 100% referral business by continually
focusing on serving clients the best I can. I love technology, and
keep up with changes to become more efficient every day.
