Overview
CIPS - Europe and International Real Estate (6 Hours)
Europe has been one of the great political success stories of the post-war world. The birth of the European Union (EU) in 1950, the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and introduction of the euro in 2002 are three of the major events that have facilitated Europe s unification, stabilization and economic growth. Unified Germany has become a leading country and its success and growth has opened the way for considerable modernization and growth for the ex-Eastern Bloc nations, formerly under Soviet rule. The EU began with six nations, Belgium, Federal Republic of Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg and Netherlands. It now numbers twenty-five, and will expand to twenty-seven members in 2007. Many of the member countries are former communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
In spite of all the noted progress, these are critical times for Europe. The European Union Constitution has been rejected in France and the Netherlands, there are major disagreements over the next five-year budget, and the persistent question of whether Turkey should become a full member of the European Union are all major challenges.
Turkey submitted its first EU membership bid in 1982 soon after Greece became a union member. The talks have not been able to progress for more than 20 years. In 1997, during talks about expansion, Turkish Islamic leader Necmettin Erbakan made it clear he was determined to make Turkey a solely Islamic state. According to a recounting of events in Pravda, this fact did not bode well with the EU member selection committee. Turkey membership was rejected. After the 1997 rejection, Erbakan was overthrown and Turkey started conducting serious reforms. The Turkish government had to abolish the death penalty, acknowledge the existence of national minorities, Kurds first and foremost, and sign a trade agreement with the EU. Other membership criteria include that all Turkish ports must be open to vessels of EU members, including Cyprus. The problem of Turkish-Cypriot relations is of great importance. Conflict between the two countries crosses centuries. This historical adversarial relationship may ultimately be the deciding issue for EU acceptance.
In addition to the Turkish relationship with Cyprus, Kurds and the weak economic development, another huge obstacle for Turkey s admission to the EU is that opinion polls show only 20 percent of Europeans are ready to see Turkey as a member of the European Union. Admission to the EU includes complicated issues involving history and current events. Turkey has worked to appease the current EU members nonetheless, there are still those who do not feel they qualify for membership. One such leader is French President Jacques Chirac who, in a Voice of America interview said Turkey needs to undergo a cultural revolution before it can join the European community. Austria would like for Turkey to be granted special partnership instead of full membership and Greece and Turkey are long-standing adversaries.
If accepted, Turkey, with its 66-million strong population, has the opportunity to become the second largest state of the European Union and a country full of opportunities. The overall impact of globalization has driven Europe to become a major market in competition with the Americas and the Asia/Pacific region. Consequently, Europe is a very active source and target of international real estate investment. This is due in part to the size of this region which offers tremendous investing potential. Real estate is complex enough locally. Adding the international element makes it more so. One major facilitating factor for doing business in Europe as well as globally is The International Consortium of Real Estate Associations (ICREA). ICREA helps consumers understand the global market business practices. Members also adhere to a code of ethics that commits them to professionalism and service to their customers and clients. These elements, plus ongoing efforts to standardize transaction practices throughout member countries, will make global transactions less complicated. Bringing all of the factors together will take a lot of time but the goal is clear.
Knowledge and awareness of basic cultural, political and economic conditions in Europe will enhance a real estate professional s ability to represent, interact with, and command the respect of clients. The concept of unification is still new and there are many who do not want to lose any more of their national identity. These are important facts to know and understand as you work with customers and clients from affected countries.
This course addresses the economies, real estate practices, and markets of the countries that are the most active and attractive European investment markets. Also included is information on skills and procedures for finding potential clients and properties, basic business protocols and conducting an international real estate business in the region.

The Who, What and Where of Real Estate Continuing Education
With the exception of New Jersey, every state in the United States requires real estate licensees to earn continuing education in order to maintain their real estate license. Licensees know they need ce credit, but the hard part is finding out how much they need and what schools offer it. This list of frequently asked questions about continuing education was developed to give real estate licensees a better understanding of the who, what and where of ce.
Who decides continuing education requirements?
States determine licensing requirements and continuing education requirements. Every state has a specific department, usually called the real estate commission or professional licensing department which write and enforce the laws of real estate licensure.
Why are some courses approved for ce and others are not?
Every state determines what is approvable. Some states have specific requirements, for example, 3 hours of legal education, 4 hours of risk management, 4 hours of agency. Whereas, other states have much more lenient requirements. In order for a course to be approved for ce, the course provider, or school, must submit an application and a fee to the real estate commission for the review of the course. Some topics are rarely approved, for example, courses on sales, marketing, or general computer skills are usually not approved.
What about online courses?
Because online courses are relatively new to the marketplace, many states have yet to determine what standards to use when approving online education. Some of the issues states have to grapple with when dealing with online education include timing, security, delivery method, and instructor availability.
What role does my REALTOR® association play in ce?
REALTOR® associations, including NAR, do not determine what courses are approved for ce. However, some state associations have strong relationships with real estate commissions and can actually influence what topics and courses are approved in their state.
In addition, many REALTOR® associations provide education programs for their members. These associations might submit their programs to their state's real estate commission for ce so members can earn ce credit while taking the course.
NAR works with various real estate commissions to get sessions presented at the annual conference approved for ce and REALTOR® University, NAR's online education portal has courses approved for ce in various states. However, NAR does not determine states' continuing education requirements nor does NAR track which members have earned continuing education credit.
How do I find out about my state's ce requirements?
Attached is a document that lists ce requirements by state, however, to confirm the information is accurate, contact your state's real estate commission. Links to real estate commissions are provided in the attached document.
One final word of advice.
Check with the school or your real estate commission about ce approval prior to registering for a course.
If you have general questions about continuing education, or would like information on ce courses available through NAR, contact Audrey Smilgys at asmilgys@realtors.org.

NAR Urges HUD to Revamp FHA Program to Help People Stay in Their Homes
WASHINGTON, April 09, 2007 - In light of the many families being affected by negative subprime mortgages, the National Association of Realtors® encouraged the Department of Housing and Urban Development to act quickly to change the FHA mortgage insurance program to enable more homeowners and their families to keep their homes.
In a letter sent to HUD Secretary Alphonso Jackson, NAR President Pat Vredevoogd Combs strongly urged action by HUD to change FHA rules and waive the requirement that a homeowner s mortgage be current in order to refinance into an FHA loan product.
Many homeowners who were able to make timely payments under the original terms of their loan are finding it difficult to make payments after rate adjustments, said Combs. We believe FHA can design a mechanism where credit worthy borrowers could refinance subject to prudent guidelines, and therefore avoid losing their homes.
As the nation s leading advocate for homeownership, NAR believes that all avenues should be reviewed and that paradigms should be shifted. The goal for all government, lenders, banks, individuals, and Realtors® -- should be to help keep people in their homes and to avoid or minimize foreclosures, Combs said earlier this month.
In recent days, it has been reported that various lenders have expressed a willingness to engage in this program to avoid costly foreclosure proceedings. This would not be a bailout for lenders, but would be a vehicle for helping prevent a number of Americans from losing their homes. NAR believes in a strong FHA and would support efforts to ensure that only borrowers who truly have the capacity to repay receive the opportunity to refinance under such changes, said Combs.
NAR encouraged HUD and the FHA to undertake a robust public education campaign to promote foreclosure prevention by raising the awareness of FHA and HUD programs. NAR has partnered with HUD and FHA in the past to create and distribute brochures designed to inform potential homebuyers about the various FHA programs. NAR also continues to be a consistent advocate for FHA modernization, so as to keep the products and services they offer pertinent to today s consumers and housing market.
We believe that with some minor regulatory adjustments to the FHA program that a significant subset of borrowers facing the prospect of foreclosure could safely refinance into an FHA mortgage. We are committed to continue our efforts with HUD and FHA. We not only want to see people achieve the American dream of home ownership, but also we want them to keep it, said Combs.
The National Association of Realtors® , The Voice for Real Estate, is America s largest trade association, representing more than 1.3 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

Most homeowners realize they will pay about twice the purchase price of their home on a traditional mortgage—a mortgage that will take about 30 years to pay off.
Introducing a way to break that cycle of financial drain—the Money Merge Account. Developed by a team of financial experts with years of experience in the mortgage industry, the MMA rapidly reduces the principal of your mortgage, practically eliminating the interest from accruing on your loan. Your 30-year mortgage can now be paid off in about 8 to 11 years, with no change to your lifestyle or refinancing of your existing mortgage.
The Money Merge Account is not a bi-weekly payment or debt roll-down system. It’s an entirely new approach that gives homeowners flexibility with their money and complete financial freedom.
