Designations Create Distinctions: News That Every Agents Needs To Know

5 Articles Every Agent Should Read Before Creating Their 2021 Business Plan


What a year! I know that every one of my industry colleagues, students and peers can agree that 2020 has been full of challenges and triumphs. Amidst some of the fastest changing conditions that the market has thrown at us (like no open houses!), the housing market and those within it are still leading the road to recovering and creating results. 


The primary value that our ‘Designations Create Distinctions’ blog provides is helping agents distinguish themselves to truly stand out from the competition. This year, I pivoted my educational format and diverse NAR® offerings to reach real estate professionals around the country via Zoom – and it has been a blast! My work is not done yet, and as I create my course calendar for 2021, I also wanted to share some news and updates that may be beneficial to all agents.


Please continue to check back for more valuable agent content, NAR® designation opportunities and professional development offerings. In the meantime, I hope you find the agent-focused news and market updates below helpful in your business planning objectives.
