Seller Representative Specialist (SRS) Designation
The SRS designation is the premier credential in seller representation. It is designed to elevate professional standards and enhance personal performance. The designation is conferred by the Real Estate Business Institute (REBI) to real estate practitioners with advanced professional training essential to representing sellers. The SRS credential is recognized by NAR and will be populated in your NRDS record as well as on the applicable section of REALTOR.com.
The SRS Advantage
Ready to achieve a new level of professional growth and recognition? The SRS designation elevates professional standards, enhances individual performance, and recognizes real estate professionals who demonstrate the knowledge and skills essential for seller representation.
HOW TO EARN THE SRS DESIGNATION:
Any licensed REALTOR® who wishes to earn the SRS designation must complete specialized training and other experiential requirements. We offer both a classroom and online course to accommodate learning preferences and schedules.
The first step in earning the SRS Designation is to complete the Seller Representative Specialist (SRS) Designation Course.
Once our office has received the student roster from the course provider/sponsoring organization, please allow up to 10 business days for processing. You will then receive an email from our office containing instructions on how to complete the designation requirements (outlined below).
SRS DESIGNATION REQUIREMENTS:
(EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2017)
All requirements must be completed within two (2) years of taking the SRS Course or the applicant must re-take the Course. Only REALTORS® who meet all of these requirements and have been officially awarded the SRS designation are permitted to call themselves an SRS and use the SRS credential, emblem and/or logo.

- Verification of three (3) completed transactions in which you acted as a seller representative (one may be a lease).
