What is an AMO®?



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.
