The National Association of REALTORS® awarded the 2019 Platinum Global Achievement Program Award to the Chicago Association of REALTORS® Global Real Estate Council at the Annual Conference & Expo in San Francisco, CA. The Association staff and volunteer leaders demonstrated high levels of achievement in the five evaluated categories: Business Plan, Marketing & Communication, Events/Education, Outreach, and Benchmarking.

In addition to excelling in the above categories and providing their members with quality networking and education events, the Chicago Association of REALTORS® Global Real Estate Council produces a great video series called “Global Minute” https://chicagorealtor.com/groups-and-networks/global/global-minute/   providing short pieces of information directly from members of their council that are easily promoted and shared on social media. In 2019 they also hosted a successful outbound trade mission to Thailand with 24 members. There they explored opportunities for members, connected with their Ambassador Association partner, and shared NAR educational tools and resources. As a result of this trade mission, the group is now planning to develop tools, education, and webinars translated in Thai for their Thai peers in 2020. CAR Global Real Estate Council is going above and beyond, not only connecting its members to the investment opportunities in their own worldly city but also around the world.

In 2018, 2017, and 2016, the Chicago Association of REALTORS® Global Real Estate Council held Gold. In 2015, they held Silver.  

Congrats, Chicago Association of REALTORS® Global Real Estate Council!
