The Accredited Buyer Representative designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation. This coveted designation is awarded to real estate practitioners by the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council (REBAC) of the National Association of REALTORS® who meet the specified educational and practical experience criteria.
The cornerstone of buyer representation education, this comprehensive course covers the specialty top to bottom. Course enrollment includes a free REBAC membership for one year.
