REALTORS® Earn Certification as Area Specialists
South Tahoe Association of REALTORS Area Specialist
September 10, 2013

South Tahoe Association of REALTORS®

When buying or selling a home, one of the most important decisions a consumer can make is incorporating the expertise of a knowledgeable REALTOR®. Choosing to work with a REALTOR® who also knows the “ins and outs” of an area, such as the nuances involving local area government agencies, only enhances that decision.
With the intent of providing a higher level of service to South Lake Tahoe home buyers and sellers, STAR created the South Tahoe Association of REALTORS® Area Specialist Certification program for its members. To achieve the certification, a licensed REALTOR® must demonstrate sufficient knowledge regarding the following local agencies and industries:
- T.R.P.A
- US Forest Service Cabins
- Building Department
- California Tahoe Conservancy
- Vacation Rentals
- South Tahoe Refuse
- South Tahoe Public Utility District
- Fire District
- Homeowner Insurance
This is considered the South Tahoe Association REALTORS®’ most valued education program each year. Speakers from the agencies listed above present information and provide updates they feel important for REALTORS® to be knowledgeable about to best represent their clients in South Lake Tahoe. After each presentation, a test is given. To qualify for the certificate, which has been approved by the California Association of REALTORS®, one must pass with at least an 80% accuracy rate. The Certificate is then valid for two years.
The following is a roster of REALTORS® that earned the South Tahoe Association of REALTORS® Area Specialist Certification in 2012 or 2013:
