Buying a home may be the largest and most complex financial transaction you ever undertake. If you’re ready to buy a home, wouldn’t you prefer to work with the most qualified real estate professional you can find? As an Accredited Buyer’s Representative, I have gone through additional training, and have proven experience
representing buyers and that extra edge you have been looking for. The ABR® d
esignation is only awarded to licensed real estate professionals who complete specialized training
that gives them the edge in understanding a buyer’s perspective and protecting and promoting their buyer clients interests. Before earning the ABR® designation, buyer’s reps must also demonstrate proven experience in
representing buyers. Further, they are committed to maintaining their professional edge by staying current on the
latest issues and trends in buyer representation. In addition to knowing the dynamics of the local market, REALTORS® with the ABR® designation understands the
special needs of buyers. They have additional knowledge and experience that takes them a step beyond an agent
who only concentrates on listing the property for sellers. An ABR® can provide you with valued assistance throughout the transaction and help you make informed decisions that will lead to a successful home purchase. As an ABR®, I can help you:
• Understand your specific needs and wants, and locate appropriate properties
• Assist you in determining how much you can afford (pre-qualify your mortgage)
• Preview and/or accompany you in viewing properties
• Advise you in formulating your offer
• Help you develop your negotiating strategy
• Provide a list of qualified vendors (inspectors, attorneys, lenders, etc.) for other services you may need
• Keep track of every detail throughout the transaction — to closing and beyond
Not all buyer’s representatives are equal. Only a buyer’s rep who has earned the Accredited Buyer’s Representative
designation has made the extra effort to raise the bar, with additional training and experience. If you work with an
ABR®, you can feel confident that you’ll receive the highest level of buyer-representation services.
