Real estate times are tough. In most markets, the days of order-taking and bidding wars are over. Agents are competing for fewer listings. The listings they do land are taking longer to close, even with great continuing education and continually improving service and technology.

This reality, coupled with the formidable power the Internet has handed buyers and sellers, has forced brokers, owners, managers and their agents to become smarter, more efficient and more creative in finding prospects and turning them into clients.

I was thrilled with the coursework and began implementing ideas immediately! I was so devoted that I became a CRB instructor in 1989. The resources, networking opportunities, and coursework applications have made the CRB Council my SOURCE.
