For real estate consumers, the one credential to look for is the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR®) designation from the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council of the National Association of REALTOR'S®"

I am proud to have earned the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) designation.

Buyers no longer need to represent themselves during the home search and purchase while all agents legally represent the seller. Smart home buyers today can receive undivided confidential representation by choosing an Accredited Buyer Representative.

A buyer's agent owes the following duties to their home buyer:  OBEDIENCE, LOYALTY, DISCLOSURE, DUE DILIGENCE, ACCOUNTABILITY, CONFIDENTIALITY & REASONABLE CARE.

These responsibilities are defined by The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania law, the Realtors Code of Ethics, and general principles of agency law.

Here are three of the most important ways Buyer Agency works for you:

Meaningful Savings Are Possible. We will help you negotiate to obtain the right price, terms, and conditions.

 You are Represented. As the Buyer Agent, we will do a comprehensive market analysis on the property you select. This will help you establish fair market value before an offer to purchase is made.

 You are Exposed to a Larger Market. In addition to MLS listed properties, our Buyer Agency System allows us to show you a wider variety of available homes, including unlisted properties – for sale by owners, foreclosure sales, and homes not yet on the market. In other words, you will have access to the TOTAL market.
