hi i'm kelly lee mcfredrick i'm a
certified international property
specialist
instructor and i want to talk to you
about how to become an international
real estate
agent and how that works is you actually
do take this certified international
property specialist course which is a
five-day course
and what that does is it tells you how
to transact real estate
around the world but what that also
means it teaches you
that you there's really no such thing as
an international real estate agent
what we do is we're able to teach how
does they do real estate in
india how is real estate conducted in
asia how are transitions happening
in germany france italy all around the
world
but allows you to connect with a network
of
international real estate agents that if
personally i have a friend in germany
who wants to sell their home
i can connect them with another
certified international property
specialist within my network around the
world
and say i have a referral for you of
somebody who would like to sell their
house in germany
same as if i have someone let's say in
oklahoma who would like to sell their
house or texas or california
i would actually have to have a license
in each of those states to be able to
conduct
real estate so really there is no such
thing as an international estate agent
but we do have the capacity to really
refer a lot of these properties out
to those agents who are licensed in
those communities
with a certified international property
specialist designation that we do carry
and is taught
and so if i have a friend with a home in
texas that wants to sell
i can get on my network and find a
licensed
texas real estate agent this certified
international property specialist
and say hey i have someone who would
like to sell their home
would you please take this referral and
of course i would help as much as i can
on my end
but know that i have to have a license
in each of these
states around my own country in all of
these i would have to pass that exam the
real estate license exam
take their continuing education courses
to be able to conduct real estate in
any of our 50 states and same as around
the world i really cannot go sell a
house in france
though i can certainly learn all about
how do they sell homes in france can i
learn some of the french
language can i learn about some of their
global transactions can i learn their
their currency when is a good time to
sell
what are some of the global trends i can
certainly refer
folks here in america to say hey this
might be a great spot we talk about
panama
we talk about some of these other
wonderful countries that are great to
live in
that somebody here in the u.s may want
to transfer over to their dominican
republic
we talk about ireland some great
bargains there there's
so many places around the world we can
say hey i can refer you to an agent
there who really may be able to help you
find the correct home
so it's really the how we work as an
international real estate agent but
there never
is a license for that it means that we
learn how to research those global
trends
how do we find out what is best for this
particular buyer let's say here in the
u.s
who does want to move someplace else
around the world and maybe they want to
retire in some of these great countries
maybe they're looking for
we're going to have some is medical
surgeries we know that there's you know
some of these other countries have some
great hospitals with lower costs in the
us
maybe folks are on a budget and there's
certain islands that really fit where
they'd like to live
dominican republic some of those costa
rica
really are some great areas and of
course throughout europe as well
kind of penny where you want to meet
maybe it's portugal maybe it's police

can help buyers and sellers
relocating from one area coming to
another area

our network of certified international
property specialist

international real estate needs
