ACCREDITATIONS
AMO® Accredited Management Organization
The Institute of Real Estate Management recognizes the needs of
property owners in selecting reputable and competent agents to
manage their properties. For this reason the Accredited Management
Organization (AMO ®) designation program was developed. An AMO ®
must meet the standards of ability and integrity as established by
the Institute of Real Estate Management. IREM ® investigates,
accredits, and requires the continued adherence of its members to
the standards for the benefit of the public. The AMO® designation
is the only designation awarded to firms by the
Institute.
AMO® firms have served the real estate management community since
1946. AMO® firms are responsible for managing 1.5 million
residential units and over 600 million square footage of commercial
property with an estimate combined value of over $88
billion.
AMO® firms manage almost every type of property: office buildings,
retail properties and shopping centers, apartments,
federally-assisted housing, condominiums, single family homes, and
industrial properties.
