Gail Perry of Windermere Real Estate Southern California’s Palm Springs South office, located at 2465 East Palm Canyon Drive, Suite 605, has earned the nationally recognized Military Relocation Professional (MRP) Certification. The National Association of REALTORS^® (NAR) confers the MRP certification to REALTORS^® who want to help military personnel and veterans find housing solutions that best meet their needs and allow them to take full advantage of their military benefits.

When military staff and their families relocate, the services of a real estate professional who understands their needs and timetables can make the transfer easier, faster and less stressful. REALTORS® who earn this certification know how to work with active duty military buyers and sellers, as well as veterans.

“Homeownership is an important part of the fabric of America, and having a stable home environment is vital when men and women of the military are called away to serve their country. Working with a REALTOR^® who understands specific needs and timetables related to military service will help make their transfers easier, faster, and less stressful,” said NAR President Gary Thomas. The certification provides NAR’s members with resources to accommodate current and former military service members at any stage of their military career, and is an approved elective for NAR’s Accredited Buyers Representative (ABR^®) designation.

“We are proud of Gail for achieving this accreditation. It is wonderful for her to be able to cater her services to best accommodate the needs of our active duty military personnel and veterans. With a large military presence close by, she is opening up her business to an additional client base that will need her professional assistance,” says Managing Broker Denise Anderson.
