Grace,
Congratulations on your achievement. I hope you get out of CRS as much or more than I have. Which is a lot. Not just from the classes but also from the leadership opportunities available.
I do love the spouses and houses theme.
Just a word in your ear. That CRS gets a bit snippy when one of a team has the designation and the other does not. ie, make sure when you use the logo it is clear it is for you, not Jeff.
Again congrats and see you around in the rain.
Thanks Kindly Brian - I appreciate you taking time to stop by and comment - The classes were very interesting and I implemented several ideas to practice - I plan to take a few more in the future:) even though I already have the Designation!
Hello Dave - thanks for the compliments - one of my philosophys' in life is to be a continual student - the biggest room in MY own house - is the room for improvement :) Thanks for taking time to drop by and share.
Sincerely to Both
Grace
Thanks for Stopping by and commenting Guy. The above certificate with Logo clearly has my name only. The CRS website has my name only. But the benefits of MY application of knowledge & marketing skills learned does positively impact OUR business :) You are not the first to mention this - seems it is a common theme item in classes and with some CRS designee's. I added a disclaimer for the CRS POLICE :)
Sincerely
Grace
Congratulations on attaining this designation Grace! Those of us who've been around a while know there was some work involved in this. Your fine reputation just gets better and better.
All good wishes,
Larry Penilla
Thanks Duane - Appreciate you taking time to stop by and say that!
Thanks Larry - appreciate your comments...I am fortunate to be part of a high achieving team where even splitting transaction sides in half allowed to me qualify with fewer classes - the classes however, are awesome and I plan to take some just to fill bi-annual CE requirements.
Sincerely to all
Grace Safrin
Congratulations, Grace! Excellent work especially with still finding time for all of your other business activities....you're amazing.

Hello Jo- Anne - It has been a Spring season full of juggling - Jeff & I completed Brokers class as well :) The CRS was a part-time pursuit over the last 3 years though:)
Thanks kindly to you both for taking time to stop by and comment.

Grace ~ Congratulations on your CRS designation. I have completed the course last week and waiting for the package this week. That was a good one ...CRS POLICE. I have to remember that one...lol
Congrats to YOU Nicholas - that is awesome! I chose to pursue this designation because of the requirements needed of proven Volume of closed sales - I think that sets it apart somewhat from the others.
Education is only as good as it's application and RESULTS.
Thanks for stopping by and again Congrats to you!
Sincerely,
Grace
