CSR Designation

The CSR Designation is designed for Realtors who want to receive the advanced training to advance their careers.  Professional Development is a common commitment common of all successful Realtors.  In fact the National Association of Realtors (NAR) has conducted studies on the success rates of Realtors and recently revealed that Realtors who develop their skills by taking at least one designation course earn almost double the income of Realtors who don’t.

We at the Seller Agency Council believe that those results can be reinforced by providing the most comprehensive course on working with sellers in the industry and it doesn’t stop there.  After a Realtor completes the course, the Seller Agency Council continues to advance the careers of it members by offering continued education, training and information programs and strategies.  There is no better place to get this additional information that is provided through our RealtyU companies, the leader in career development for agents and brokers.
