I am located in Europe and have a client looking for a home in Florida (among other warm states). I would like to know how international real estate sales work.
1. If my client ends up buying a home with my help in searching, is there a "Buyer's Agent" commission?
2. What will my follow through role be on the U.S. side as I am not a Florida licensed agent and am unfamiliar with the closing process in the U.S.?
3. Is there any way I can set up a "letter of intent" type of thing with a broker or two in FL for similar situations in the future as I would like to increase Florida home presentation here on my local market and it may be easier to work with brokers I can develope a relationship with?
Thanks so much! I hope someone can give me some directional insight.

In the United States, buyers agents usually receive a 2.5 to 3% commission. I am not sure how it works for international agents. I would recommend contacting real etate agencies such as Remax, Prudential, Ect... in the United States and ask them. I live in Palm Coast Florida and I know that agents in our town get calls all the time from overseas buyers.
