Why Use an Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR®) When You’re Ready to Buy a Home?

Buying a house is a big deal. More often than not, buyers look at around 10 houses before making a decision. It definitely helps to have someone you can trust to help you through this process. In addition, it is probably the biggest investment that someone will ever make – and the most complex. There are many good reasons to work with a qualified real estate professional, especially a trained professional who has earned the Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®) designation. This accreditation signifies the agent provides best-in-class in buyer services.

When you look for an ABR® before you look for a home, you’ll be served, not sold. Your interests become their interests. And you will be working with someone who has gone the extra mile by completing specialized training in delivering the best in buyer-representation services. Plus, a REALTOR® who has an ABR® designation also has an established track record with proven experience in representing the concerns of home buyers.

What is an ABR® (Accredited Buyer’s Representative)?
