Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR®)

 

The Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®) designation is designed for real estate buyer agents who focus on working directly with buyer-clients. When you decide to earn your ABR®, you gain:

  • Valuable real estate education that elevates your skills and knowledge in the eyes of homebuyers.
  • Ongoing specialized information, programs and updates that help you stay on top of the issues and trends in successfully representing homebuyers.
  • Access to REBAC members-only marketing tools and resources, which provide an additional competitive edge.

The core education requirement for achieving the ABR® Designation is to complete the 2-day Accredited Buyer Representative course. Candidates must also complete one elective course.
