I have completed extensive real estate specialty courses
and sales criteria to obtain certification and designations in various areas
as listed below and am finalizing my requirements for the CRS (Certified
Residential Specialist) and LTG (Leadership Training Graduate.) designations.
Having owned my own real estate company prior to joining Coldwell Banker
Residential Real Estate, I have obtained my brokerage license, although
I am currently registered as a Broker-Associate with Coldwell Banker. I
also hold Licenses for Mortgage Broker and Registered Real Estate Appraiser:
- CCIM - Certified Commercial Investment Member
- CIPS - Certified International Property Specialist
- CRB - Certified Real Estate Brokerage Manager
- GRI - Graduate REALTORS Institute
- CBR - Certified Buyer Representative
As a Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS), I have had
specialized education and training in the study of the
international market, the global perspective of investment
and economies, and finding and serving the foreign client,
as well as the experience of working with international
buyers. Originally from Canada and of German background,
and holding membership in various real estate and business
organizations (as listed under Professional Affiliations),
I have an extensive national and international network.
As the economies of the world have become a global marketplace,
Boca Raton has developed as an important international
marketplace, and a part of South Florida that is the
Gateway to the Americas.
As a Certified Buyer Representative (CBR) I have had specialized
education and training in the representation of the Buyer in a transaction,
as well as marketing and negotiation strategies in such transactions.
In addition to the membership associations and educational designations,
I participate in ongoing business development programs for Referrals and
Customer Service. These programs help me to improve and maximize all of
my marketing strategies, systems and processes on a consistent basis to
make sure I have a constant flow of buyers and sellers, super service from
the suppliers I work with, and provide my clients with many value-added
benefits.

Industry experts predict dramatic changes in the real estate
business in the next 5 years, as I am sure many other industries are changing.
Realtors will require continuous professional development to stay at the
cutting edge of their industry and provide customers with the best service.
I am a member of the following associations and have pursued and obtained
most of their designations.
These designations and the memberships have also provided a solid foundation
for my Referral Business - I provide a more comprehensive services package
to all my clients - whatever their needs -
- more exposure to
buyers for seller's listings as a direct marketing tool and also because
I am listed in the various directories and on the internet as a contact
for the Boca Raton / South Florida area.
- a highly professional, national and international network of realtors outside of the Boca Raton
area for clients who have family or friends moving to other parts of
the country.
- a wide reaching
pipeline of contacts in many areas that enables me to be current on
market and business trends throughout the country.
