I should have posted this PRIOR to the event, but didn't get to do that, so this will have to suffice.

Our Global Business Council sponsored a day long seminar today on our growing international real estate market. 

I had to be there, as the President of NEFAR, for the introductions, and I had planned to stay for part of the day. Turns out, the speakers were fabulous, and I spent the ENTIRE day at the program.

We had two agent panels, one that addressed the European countries, and one focused on Asian countries. A money exchange company, a local lender who can do mortgages for foreign nationals, an immigration attorney - the list goes on.

95 people attended, and I saw many faces I had not seen before, which I love.  We all enjoyed a lunch featuring 3 stations: fajitas & tacos, lasagne, and BBQ.

If you haven't been to your local assocation for an event lately, you may want to see what is on the calendar and make plans to attend - I'm glad I did today!

Carol, Gaining The Global Edge was an outstanding event put on by NEFAR. The speakers were top calibre and the information was so rich and relevant. This is the type of event that could be held in a larger venue once the word gets out how good this one was! Great to see you and look forward to this again next year from NEFAR Global Business Council.
