Working for You

Founded in 1926, the Austin Board of REALTORS® (ABoR) has learned from and worked with thousands of REALTOR® members to provide the best business resources available. From our charter membership, ABoR has grown to an active membership of more than 9,500. ABoR consistently supports Central Texas real estate professionals with outstanding legislative representation, educational offerings, industry related products and networking opportunities without regularly increasing member dues.

Our Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which is one of the organization's most significant membership tools, was initiated as an ABoR function in 1952. Today, the integrity of the MLS content is managed by the Austin/Central Texas Realty Information Service (ACTRIS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ABoR. ABoR also promotes property listings and REALTORS® to consumers via Austinhomesearch. Established in 1998, this consumer Web site allows homebuyers the opportunity to search for properties and REALTORS® in the Austin area.
