Realtors Around The World Take Notice of International Buyers

June 13, 2018 by Corrine Buffington

Not that long ago, agents did not have the means and resources the Internet now provides to them, to talk to international real estate market players.

The business of dealing international real estate is ever-increasing, mostly owing to the connectivity of the globe and the Internet.

With statistics like fifty percent growth in volume year after year and boasting a total share of the total real estate gross sales of the United States Of America at ten percent, the international buyer is rapidly becoming a thing to consider for any real estate broker wishing to enter this market worth north of $150 billion in 2017. Assuming the National Association of Realtors (NAR) is stating the above numbers then surely you must acknowledge that the international client is worthy of consideration when selling real estate.

Then there’s the stat revealing that of all foreign clientele, the lion’s share of them are affluent people aiming to expand their wealth in foreign real estate marketplaces.

Yet adding the international investor to your arsenal won’t be as easy as finding them can be difficult.

Attaining this sector of the market however will include overcoming some challenges including language and currency exchange to name a few. Regularly though most international buyers will never purchase in to a country without doing their homework and having procedures in place to eliminate any “lost in translation” issues.

China rules the headlines across the globe when it comes to international business and in real estate this runs specifically true considering the data displays that of the whole sales volume in the USA to international buyers, China holds 50% of that. All even with limitations including language and social differences. It’s never been more obvious as in the case of what is being seen in Round Top, TX.

Ranches for sale in Round Top have drawn the attention of many foreign investors and as such have increased in value immensely.

Permit us to explain how you can enter this sector of the real estate market.

CPROP’s end-to-end digital exchange administration platform was made to present real estate agents to international leads and enable them to securely and transparently close deals.

At present the real estate sector depends to a great extent on technology through out the entire transactional process from start to finish. Let me share a couple ways a realtors can break in to this lucrative and expanding component of the business.

Join a transparent international platform

Any real estate agents seeking to become participants in the international real estate forum, ought to start their search by discovering online venues where interested buyers and vendors may get together. Once discovered…join in on the discussion and earn trust in the community.

If, for example the platform features a company directory with unfiltered client ratings and ratings also automated translations, better yet.

Think trust and stability

Language barriers have to be expected and dealt with if you wish to have any international real estate transaction end without issues among them fraud.

Recognize that within any international real estate deal there must be internal security and external trust details to address to assure smooth transactions.

The planet recently was introduced with a new method of securing transactions on the web. Blockchain technology has permanently altered the way we transfer funds digitally. Blockchain allows real estate contracts to-be so closely protected/encrypted that helps prevent any changes be undiscovered. Brett Elliott of www.costaricarealestate.com has said that many contracts are starting to use Blockchain technology including many uses of DocuSign for finalizing foreign buyers of real estate in Costa Rica.

Besides that another brilliant benefit to implementing crypto money in transactions is the security for the buyer in knowing their money is secure.

Seek accountable, efficient collaboration

Finalizing deals with local buyers is tricky enough, and yet when buyers are international, realtors have to take still greater care to establish a smooth transaction.

Grasping all the moving parts to your expected contacts, leads and contracts is imperative to your success. Are you aware of the realtime status of anybody in your pipeline at the moment? If you’re not you need to.

Consider this though, as an agent doing business in international transactions, wouldn’t it be good to have a SaaS application that managed all the electronic areas from start to finish for any sort of international real estate contract? Routine openness simplifies communication, frees up agent time and relieves everybody’s mind.
