Short Sales & Foreclosures
(SFR)

professionals, short sales
and foreclosures are the
new "traditional" real
estate transaction.

sales as well as help
buyers pursue short sale
and foreclosure
opportunities are not
merely good skills to have
in today’s market – they
are critical. And while
short sales and

the faint of heart, agents
with the proper tools and
training can use these
specialty areas to guild
their business for the
long term.

Senior Real Estate
Specialist (SRES)

The Americas and
International real-estate
(CHIPS)
Last
year 6 million ¼” drills
were sold and the people
buying didn't even want
them! What did they want?
Holes. The drill was a
means to an end. That too
is the role of a real
estate agent, helping
people get what they
really want—property
ownership. In
international real estate
you can never have enough
information. Sifting,
sorting and analyzing the
data is a large part of
facilitating a successful
international transaction.
As we explore the
Americas, statistics will
be used to compare
individual countries,
examine their patterns of
growth and determine their
investment potential.
