Now there is yet another reason to attend the 16th Annual Luxury Real Estate Fall Conference in San Diego (Del Mar), California. Greg Moesser, Vice President of the Private Estates division of Rodeo Realty in Beverly Hills, will be hosting a break out session on the topic of ‘Attracting International Buyers and Foreign Investors’.
International Buyers are a powerful, exclusive and highly profitable Niche market. Learn how to attract Foreign Buyers seeking an accelerated Full-Time Residency status, often in as little as 4 months. The new EB-5 program is highly attractive to foreign investors and removes the time limitations of residing in the USA. This ideal demographic is also seeking to purchase luxury real estate.
