To Receive the CRS designation, agents must demonstrate
outstanding professional achievements — including
high-volume sales — and pursue advanced training in areas
such as finance, marketing, and technology. They also must
maintain membership in the National Association of Realtors
and abide by its code of ethics.
1) CRS Designation - Experience and Ethics
A hallmark of the CRS is not just the advanced training and
education they receive. Just as important is the marketplace
expertise they bring to the sale or purchase of your home.
To earn the CRS designation, strict requirements must be met
regarding experience and transactions, ensuring the
knowledgable and skilled services you expect. And ethics are
strictly enforced to ensure that you are treated fairly and
professionally every step of the way.
2) CRS Designation - A Focus on Home Buying and Selling
Whether you are looking to buy or sell a home, you face
significant risks along the way. Financial risks, legal
risks, even the risk that your home purchase or sale will
fall through. A CRS is trained to minimize those risks by
diligently exploring and discussing your options. Hire a
Realtor with the Utah Real Estate CRS Designation.
3) CRS Designation - Technological Expertise
Technology is changing the face of real estate. Computers,
the internet, mobile communications — each has helped make
the market more efficient, and at the same time, more
daunting. More than ever, the success of your home purchase
or sale depends on your agent’s ability to harness the power
of technology and use it to your advantage.
4) CRS Designation - An Ability to Maximize Profits and
Minimize Costs
Buying a home isn’t simply about paying the lowest price.
And selling a home isn’t just about getting the money you
asked for. Along the way, there are fees, inspections,
taxes, and myriad other concerns that can impact the bottom
line of your home purchase or sale.
