ABR® stands for Accredited Buyer’s Representative, and is a special designation given to those REALTORS® trained to deal with real estate Buyers.  Each REALTOR® with the ABR designation must complete a comprehensive course in Buyer Representation, an elective course on a Buyer Representation Specialty as well as submit documentation verifying professional experience, before he/she can be awarded the “internationally recognized” designation.

Why Do You Need an ABR®?

Buying a home is no small matter.  Besides being the largest financial transaction you may ever undertake, it’s probably also 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, representing best-in-class 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’ll 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.

There are approximately 3500 REALTORS® in and around the City of Edmonton.  Only approximately 40 have earned the ABR designation.  I am one of those 40.
