"Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning". – Benjamin Franklin

IT MAKES SENSE.... IF YOU DON'T GROW AND PROGRESS IN YOUR BUSINESS, HOW CAN YOU SUCCEED? I BELIEVE THAT LEARNING MORE ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS, HELPS YOU GROW IN YOUR PROFESSION, KEEPING YOU IN FRONT OF YOUR COMPETITORS. SO, WHEN YOU HEAR OR READ ABOUT PEOPLE SAYING DESIGNATIONS MEAN NOTHING! THINK AGAIN!!! YOU LEARN! YOU GROW, AND ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS. KEEPS YOU KNOWLEDGEABLE, AHEAD OF OTHERS AND YOU WILL HAVE ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS, CLIENTS HAVE ABOUT 98% OF TIME! THE REAL ESTATE LAWYERS HAVE MOST OF MY ANSWERS AND THAT OTHER 2%, BUT THAT'S ONLY BECAUSE I STAY ACTIVE AS A REALTOR(R), READ MY OCAR, AND NAR MAGAZINES, STAY UP TO DATE ON MY DESIGNATIONS AND LEARN MORE AT MY LOCAL REAL ESTATE BOARD.
