The Global Advisory Group develops educational programs and networking business opportunities pertinent to the international real estate industry. The advisory group promotes the yearly member wide global survey, the online "agent search by language or specialty culture" tool found on HAR.com as well as the visibility of MLS Area 82 where global properties are found. A quarterly global newsletter is distributed, and the online Global Hotline Hour is offered 4 times per year. It is preferred that applicants have the CIPS designation or be enrolled in classes leading to the designation. This group meets 4 times a year, typically on Mondays from 2:00-3:00pm.
