Good Morning, To receive the SRS Designation, you must attend the two day required class and attend a second elective course, plus meet other requirements as set out below. This is a reminder that we have finally received certification from DBPR for "The Power Negotiator's Playbook" for 8 hours of CE Credit. We will offer that class on December 9th from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at a cost of $100 per student. If you have not taken a second elective course, you can take this course to satisfied the second elective course requirements for the SRS designation. You still have to satisfy the five (5) completed transaction in which you acted solely as a seller representative (no dual agency). Remember, any transactions closed two years prior to or after taking the SRS Designation Course are eligible for credit. Please call our office 904-829-8738 or email me to reserve a seat. This is an important opportunity to complete the class requirements locally (Florida and St. Augustine). I currently have Andrew Birchall, Steve Ladrido, Paula Fallon and Beverly Daniel signed up to attend.
