Lindsey Cantillo, ABR and SRS

What are ABR and SRS?

Two designations for agents who represent one side of a sale. ABR, Accredited Buyer's Representative, is for representing buyers; SRS, Seller Representative Specialist, is for representing sellers. Lindsey Cantillo holds both.

Who awards ABR, and what does it take?

ABR is awarded by the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council, part of the National Association of REALTORS®. It takes a core course with an exam, an elective course and documented sales in which the agent represented the buyer alone, all within three years.

Who awards SRS, and what does it cover?

SRS is awarded by the Real Estate Business Institute, also affiliated with NAR. Its training covers how to present a home's value to the market, how to serve a seller from listing to closing, and the ethics of representing a seller.

Why does it matter on this coast?

Buying or selling in Guanacaste often means a buyer in one country and a seller in another. An agent trained to represent each side knows what each one needs to hear, and what each one needs protecting from.
