Too many acronyms, right?  CRS is the Council of Residential Specialists, an organization where only the top Realtors qualify for membership.  They have a rigorous review process to select certain Realtors as Subject Matter Experts, which they designate as SME.  As you know, I wrote the book on real estate negotiating, so they asked me to be considered for this designation.  I am happy to report that they designated me as a negotiating Subject Matter Expert.  So, if you need someone with negotiating skills, please to go www.NegotiatingConsultant.com and I will be happy to help you.
