The Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation. With North American membership now excelling 42,000, the ABR may be one of the best kept real estate secrets in Canada. This coveted designation is awarded by the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council (REBAC), an affiliate of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), to real estate practitioners who meet the specified educational and practical experience criteria. In Canada, both CREA and Ontario's RECO endorses this program. Buyer Representation goes beyond just negotiating prices for homes. A buyer's representative might negotiate with the seller for a smaller deposit, for all closing costs to be paid by the seller, or for other contract terms more favourable to the buyer. Buyer brokerage assistance may include helping the buyer obtain third party insurance, such as legal counsel to review proposed contract, or an inspector to conduct a structural inspection of the property. A buyer's representative is loyal to the Buyer's interest. What is an Accredited Senior Agent? The Accredited Senior Agent (ASA) designation is a professional new skill designed for the aging population. It is training in understanding the basis of real estate tax planning, estates, capital gains, transition moving for those in need, care facilities, care takers and other related services.
There is a lot more to listing and selling a home than just the paper process.
