Did you know that agents who work with domestic clients only close an average of 33 percent of their transactions?

In contrast, transactions conducted with clients from outside the U.S. on average close 50 percent of their transactions. The even better news is that they earn 50 percent more than agents who work with only domestic U.S. clients.

Part of this reason is the stringent requirements to obtain a loan in the U.S. if you’re not born here or have a green card. Consequently, most international buyers end up paying all cash.

If you’re ready to increase your income, expanding your business to include more international buyers and sellers is a smart move.
