My Designations

Agents who have earned the SRS designation gain a comprehensive foundation to help them better represent the interests of sellers in today’s marketplace. The course also helps agents avert potential risks and liabilities by covering changes in the law affecting real estate.  The SRS course involves 16 hours of classroom instruction and is offered by the Real Estate Business Institute (REBI).  REBI is a globally recognized authority valued for its expertise in developing and advancing the professional development of real estate professionals and is affiliated with the National Association of Realtors. 

It’s a known fact the GRI designation gives agents a competitive edge in the world of real estate. I value the designation because I can better assist my clients at every step, on every level, and on any topic of concern to them. It has definitely moved my professional knowledge up a notch.

• Ethics and Professional Responsibility
• Risk Management

• Agency in Virginia
• The Business of Real Estate
• The Sales Contract
• Real Estate Law and Virginia Regulations

When you’re selling your house, you want to get the most from your investment. But determining the most accurate price for your home can be confusing. 

That’s why you need a REALTOR® who is a Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA). A PSA adds valuable perspective to your sale by taking the guesswork out of pricing. They can find your accurate price by strategically building a thorough Comparative Market Analysis, or CMA. Gain the confidence that your house is presented — and sold — at the most accurate price. Don’t guess. 

I’m a PSA, and I can help you determine the right price for your home. Is the price right? Contact me to find out!
