Why MA Home Buyers Should Use A Certified Buyer's Representative (CBR)

Certified Buyer Representative (CBR) 

If you're a home buyer in MA, you should definitely enlist the services of a Buyer Agent to help you find your home.  Over the last several years, Buyer Agency has exploded in MA.  I've written about the basics of why it is important to use a Buyer Agent HERE.

However, it is important to note that not every agent who practices Buyer Agency in MA has been properly trained to do so.  In fact, most haven't.  So how do you, the consumer, ensure that you are hiring a professional that knows what he or she is doing?

Happily, there is an answer.  You can enlist the services of a Certified Buyer Representative, or CBR.  From the CBR WEBSITE:

Why Should I Be Sure My Buyer Agent Is A Certified Buyer Representative?

A recent survey completed by the National Association of Realtors shows that over 40% of the buyers are now represented in the real estate transaction. In some states, the figure is over 80%. Considering the rapid growth of buyer agency, it is imperative that a buyer find an agent who has been trained to professionally represent them in the transaction.

That, specifically, is the reason the certification mark CBR® Certified Buyer Representative was created. Issued in 1993 by the US Patent and Trademark Office, this mark allows consumers to identify a buyer agent who has been trained and who possesses the skills necessary to represent purchasers in a legal, ethical, and non-adversarial fashion.

Those agents who have acquired this designation have demonstrated their commitment to full client level service to the buyer. They are armed with forms, checklists, and disclosure documents to perform a level of diligence in the real estate transaction that is unparalleled in the industry.

When deciding on an agent to represent you, ask about their credentials and training. Many real estate agents attempt to practice buyer agency without acquiring the skills necessary to perform professional representation. The CBR designation assures you that the agent you hire has been trained and will perform to the level of the competent professional, working in your best interest to meet your personal needs in your next real estate transaction.

I am happy to say that I attained the CBR designation years ago, and have helped many home buyers since that time to find their perfect home.  Nationwide, less than 1% of all REALTORs have achieved this designation, so it's a pretty elite group that I am proud to be a part of. 

So please make sure you do your homework before hiring an agent to help you find a home in MA, and hire a CBR.  You'll be very happy you did.
