"Ability Means Nothing Without Visibility is a principle behind DLE, but visibility has to serve the client," said Anthony Grynchal, founder and CEO of Designated Local Expert Network. "These five professionals bring different strengths to their communities. Our endorsement recognizes their commitment to understanding the market, explaining the strategy and putting their clients' properties in front of relevant buyers."

The network's designation offerings include the Designated Online Visibility Expert, Designated Luxury Marketing Expert and Designated International Marketing Expert credentials. DLE states that the five professionals' scores reflect its internal assessment and are separate from government licensing, independent rankings and client review ratings.

What The Endorsement Covers

The DLE Standard is Designated Local Expert Network's proprietary member assessment framework, and its six areas of evaluation cover market knowledge, client experience, marketing strategy, online visibility, responsiveness and professional accountability. DLE and its related marketing designations are proprietary credentials offered within its paid membership programs, and real estate services are provided through each professional's respective brokerage. The network encourages members to distinguish exposure metrics such as views and clicks from inquiries, completed showings and offers.
