I now work along side my father selling real estate in Central Oklahoma with one of the nation's leading real estate franchises United Country Real Estate. While we sell all types of real estate both traditionally and at auction, from residential to commercial, we specialize in rural properties, farms and ranches in Central Oklahoma. Also we stay on the cutting edge of the industry, I recently received my designation as a Accredited Auctioneer Real Estate (AARE) from the National Auctioneers Association’s Education Institute. The AARE program provided me with the expert training necessary to effectively market residential, agricultural, commercial, and industrial real estate. The program also provided me with training in evaluating property, preparing important financial documents, and preparing the property for auction. The AARE designation requires completion of 24 hours of training, the completion of a case study and recorded participation in ten real estate auctions. Less than 360 individuals hold this distinction in the United States.
