Realtor connects with brokers in Denmark and Germany

Carla Bonten, owner of Carla Bonten Realty, Inc., Carla Bonten Rentals, Inc. and Auctioneers by Carla Bonten, Inc. in Bonita Springs announced that she has connected with brokers in Denmark and Germany to attract foreign buyers to Southwest Florida properties.

"I have negotiated working relationships with two real estate brokers in Europe to stimulate more foreign interest in real estate in Southwest Florida," says Bonten.

Bonten now works with Thomas Kragelund, located in Klampenborg. He operates under the name Carla Bonten Realty Denmark. A full website is under construction for Carla Bonten Realty Denmark but a temporary website is up and running at www.carlabontenrealty. dk until the full site is completed.

The German broker is located in Neunkirchen, Germany and is using their own website to link to the www.carlabontenrealty.com website to preview current listings and featured properties. The German firm is advertising Southwest Florida listings locally in Germany and are using the current dollar situation to encourage buyers to purchase now.

Bonten has an exclusive real estate contract with both brokers and is excited at the endless possibilities these offices will bring to sellers here in Southwest Florida.

"I want to make sure we are using our foreign offices to the best of our ability and that is why I will handle every inquiry personally to ensure clients receive the most accurate information and service possible," says Bonten. "We need to stimulate the local sales and I am stepping out to my European friends and business colleagues to generate foreign interest."

This is an advantageous time for foreign investors to consider American real estate. With the American dollar currently weaker than many other currencies, the Southwest Florida real estate market offers many opportunities to purchase real estate at a deep discount.

"Through our network of mortgage lenders, we can offer attractive financing programs exclusively tailored to Foreign National buyers that make qualifying easy with closings scheduled quicker than ever. Southwest Florida remains one of the most popular real estate markets for Foreign National buyers, and new technology now makes the conversion of funds faster and easier," says Bonten.

Property owners in Southwest Florida who are interested in connecting with this market of potential buyers are encouraged to list their properties with Bonten, so that she can utilize her wide network of international contacts on their behalf.
