Commercial Real Estate Investment Planning Specialist & Advisor
The Certified Real Estate Planning Specialist (CRPS) and National Commercial Real Estate Advisor (NCREA) are professional designations offered by the National Association of Certified Estate Planners (NCREA).
The CRPS designation is designed for real estate professionals who want to specialize in helping clients with real estate planning, which includes the use of real estate to achieve financial and estate planning goals. The NCREA designation is designed for real estate professionals who want to specialize in commercial real estate.
Earning either of these designations can help real estate agents stand out in the industry and demonstrate to clients that they have a high level of knowledge and expertise in their area of specialization. It can also help agents expand their services and potentially increase their income by offering additional value to clients.
To earn either designation, real estate agents must complete a certain number of hours of approved education in the relevant area of specialization and pass an examination. Once they have earned a designation, they must complete continuing education requirements in order to maintain it.
