Realtor earns prestigious designation

Jeanne Wimpey

Jeanne Wimpey of RE/MAX Hiawassee Realty was recently awarded the Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI) designation by the Georgia and National Associations of Realtors. She joins other top producers in the residential real estate industry who hold the GRI designation across the nation. The Realtor Institute has been in existence for more than thirty years and has graduated thousands of Realtors.

Jeanne, a member of the

Northeast Georgia Board of Realtors, completed the ninetyhour curriculum required to achieve the highly acclaimed designation by attending an intensive series of instruction covering a variety of subjects including contract law, professional standards, sales and marketing, finance, and risk reduction.

With this designation and through increased awareness of current topics important to the real estate professional, such as legal issues, Jeanne can better serve prospective clients and customers.

The GRI designation sets the individuals who have attained it apart from other practitioners because

it indicates to the public that the individuals have obtained a professional education foundation on which to base the services they provide and that they are members of the National Association of Realtors and abide by its Code of Ethics.

The Realtor Institute is designed to educate practitioners about local, state and national real estate practices that affect them, their clients and customers. The Georgia Institute is taught by leading real estate professionals from around the country.
