What's a CRS

The Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) is the highest Designation awarded to sales associates in the residential sales field. The CRS Designation recognizes professional accomplishments in both experience and education.

Since 1977 the Council of Residential Specialists has been conferring the CRS Designation on agents who meet its stringent requirements. Currently, there are nearly 36,000 active CRS Designees.

Why Use a CRS?

You have valued clients who are moving to a city in another state. But you do not know a REALTOR® there.

How can you find another REALTOR® who cares for their best interests as much as you do? And who’ll send you a referral fee promptly when the clients closes on a home?

It’s easy when you look up CRS Designees, who live all across the country and in virtually every town in the United States. They number more than 36,000.

More important, they are pre-qualified for your clients. Because you know they have completed unparalleled training in both education and production to earn the CRS Designation.

Like you, they are consummate professionals. And you know your client is being cared for as if you were their REALTOR® in the new city and state.
