I had the recent honor of sharing the virtual stage with Richard Silver of Sotheby’s International Realty Canada. In a featured session of The Buzz Conference, Richard and I offered perspective from our own markets on how the pandemic has influenced cross border demand and the logistics behind buying and selling property during the COVID era.
Major considerations have included how international travel restrictions have disrupted access to seasonal second homes and how to manage options for properties from afar. For both Canadians seeking the warmth of southern climes like Naples and U.S. residents wanting a ‘back up’ property in Canada, there are a lot of complex questions and considerations.
It was an honor to co-host this panel with Richard and to share critical information on how to navigate international real estate transactions.
