MARKET
Realtors see strong international activity, organize global real estate conference
Realtors, members of the
National Association of Realtors,
will travel to Hanoi,
Vietnam to join experts in
the real estate industry from all over
the world to learn, share, connect and
transact during the 2018 International
Real Estate Conference. Now in its
fourth year, IREC will take place at
the National Convention Center in
Hanoi from September 6-7, with an
expo extending from September 8-10.
The annual real estate conference
brings together top experts to discuss
the industry’s most pressing trends
and is an opportunity for international
attendees to make connections with
real estate professionals in one of the
world’s most dynamic regions.
“Nearly a quarter of Realtors®
reported that they worked with an
international client in the last year,
even as low inventory and higher
home prices continue to affect the
U.S. market. Demand from overseas
remains strong; foreign buyers
purchased a total of $121.0 billion of
residential property last year and at a
more expensive price than domestic
buyers did, a comparison of $292,200
for a foreign median home price and
$249,300 for domestic,” said NAR
President Elizabeth Mendenhall, a
sixth-generation Realtor from Columbia,
Missouri and CEO of RE/MAX
Boone Realty.
This year’s event draws upon the
success of past events in the Philippines,
South Korea and Thailand and
includes high-level speakers such as
the U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam and
a representative from the Vietnamese
Prime Minister’s offi ce.
“Realtors understand better than
anyone that the U.S. real estate market
continues to be seen as a safe,
secure and profi table place to invest
in property. IREC brings together NAR
partner associations from all over the
world to discuss cross-border opportunities
and the many benefi ts of investing
in the U.S. real estate market,”
Mendenhall said.
The conference kicks off with the
NAR Global Leadership Summit, an
invitation-only meeting where leaders
from NAR’s bilateral partners will
convene to discuss hot topics and
trends infl uencing the industry worldwide.
Conference sessions, which are
open to all registered attendees, will
cover current industry topics such as
artifi cial intelligence; big data, and
data analytics; block chain; building
construction and design trends; smart
cities; global real estate market trends
from each region; and more.
Over 1,000 conference attendees
are expected, and 60,000 are expected
to visit the conference exhibit hall.
The host for IREC 2018 is the Vietnam
National Real Estate Association; NAR
is supporting the conference as a
strategic partner.
