Did you know that Professional Designations can significantly increase a REALTOR®'s income?

According to the 2001 National Association of REALTORS® Member Profile survey:

Thirty-three percent of REALTORS® have a professional designation, a slight increase (one percentage point) from the 1999 Profile. The most frequently cited designations held by REALTORS® were GRI (Graduate REALTOR® Institute) and CRS (Certified Residential Specialist, RMNI). As with affiliate membership, professional designations can significantly increase a REALTOR®'s income. Sales agents holding professional designations have incomes that are $27,000 higher, while brokers with designations earn $18,900 more per year.
