QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS FOR AGENTS OUTSIDE CANADA / USA
Q.) Why do home buyers (and other real estate professionals) need a service like Promark Preferred?
A.) The
problem for home buyers from a country outside of the USA (or any other
country) is deciding on "one" real estate agent to use! The National Association of Realtors says the NAR's membership is at over one million! There are simply too many real estate agents to choose
from! We want to change that. Not enough agents focus on creating a descriptive "online bio/profile" and
those that do are lost in a sea of competitors who may not even have
one! If you are located thousands of miles away in Canada or overseas and want an experienced US real estate agent who has worked with foreign buyers before how would you choose "one" US agent? Click here to see the results of a recent Canada/USA public survey.
Q.) How do you reduce "the number of Realtors" that I am competing with in my area so I get selected by buyers?
A.) Promark Preferred will only list and promote a maximum of "three" real estate agents per geographical service area and listing level.

Let Us Help You Get More International Business!
Your Time is Valuable: Do you spend the majority of your time marketing to non-
resident buyers and potential relocation clients? If not, try us! You will reach more
international buyers for properties in your area, receive leads for second homes
and relocations plus get referrals from foreign agents and other professionals.
Our Guarantee: It’s all about getting more leads
and referrals that turn into sales
or listings so here is our guarantee.
If you do not get at least 2 to 4 sales or listings
before the expiration
of your profile listing by being in our Preferred Agent Directory we will
extend your profile listing for an additional 6 months free of charge.
Many international buyers & sellers consider an agent's bio/profile page the
1st or 2nd most important page on an agent website so it needs to stand out!
We focus on differentiating you from the other agents in your area by listing you
as having foreign investor and / or relocation experience in our P.A.D. We then
have you place an "internationally focused" (full page preferred) real estate
profile in our directory that emphasizes this experience and why foreign buyers
should choose you as their agent. We can list your professional credentials and
bio, your sales and international experience, testimonials, a description of your
service area and local amenities, your business address, photo and links to your
email address, blog and website plus an optional link to your current listings!
The Foreign Investor & Relocation Market is Huge.
Get More Leads & Referrals. Expand "Your" Market!
Just look at the international statistics! Our unique marketing programs target potential clients outside of your geographical service area including those who live in another city or country and want to buy or sell a property in the area you service.
This includes buyers and sellers relocating from one Canadian province to another or from one US state to another or between countries thousands of miles apart.
They could be looking for a home or condo as an investment property, a vacation property, a second home, a future retirement property or an income rental property. Relocations can be for a job opportunity, business, family or retirement reasons.
We will only list 3 agents per
service area and listing level.
Reduce the Competition in Your Service Area!
There are tons of real estate agents in your area looking for the same local business you are. To get more foreign investor and relocation business we will promote your prior experience in these specific areas to potential buyers!
You probably spend a lot of time and money marketing yourself in more or less
the same way as your competition. You need to expand into the huge foreign
investor and relocation market located outside of the area you service!
Less Competition is Key: You will not be competing for business against
every other agent in your service area because, while having 1 or 2 preferred agents per area is acceptable to us, our goal is to only list a maximum of 3
preferred real estate agents per geographical service area and listing level!
Not all agents have your experience.
Specific Experience: All listed agents must have worked with non-resident property
buyers before and have experience with relocations to another area, city or country.
Specific Advice: All listed agents must be up-to-date on foreign buyer real estate
requirements and the relocation preferences available in their geographical area.
Specific Referrals: All listed agents must be able to assist potential (local and foreign)
property buyers or sellers by suggesting referrals to other professional services.
A "Specialists Only" Company: We will only list, profile, market and refer a maximum
of three specialist real estate agents per geographical service area / level worldwide.
