NEXT Financial Group, Inc. Seeks to Accommodate Changes in Investor Behavior

Houston, Texas (PRWEB) May 14, 2012

There was a time when information on the latest financial happenings may have proved difficult to come by. Curious investors, eager for information about certain stocks or assets, had to wait for the next mornings paper, or else place an urgent call to their portfolio manager. In this day and age however, having to wait for up-to-date financial advice is a thing of the past. Indeed, the Internet has made financial data more accessible than ever, something that has resulted in altogether better informed investors. While some in the financial services see this as an obstacle, the representatives of NEXT Financial Group, Inc. are embracing it, ensuring that they are just as up-to-speed on the latest market happenings as their clients.

The Wall Street Journal reports that investors with no previous interest in, or exposure to, financial education are suddenly beginning to study up on market trends and financial forecasts. This shift in investor behavior is due in large part to the resources made readily available by the Web. These resources include everything from online finance seminars to basic economic news updates.

As investors change their behavior, the Wall Street Journal reports that their financial planners must adapt to keep up with them. For many financial planners, this means making more frequent, regular contact with their clients. Some financial planning firms are reconfiguring their entire approach to business, on a strictly client-by-client basis. The representatives affiliated with independent broker-dealer NEXT Financial Group, Inc., meanwhile, are simply renewing their own efforts to stay as well informed as the investors themselves.

According to NEXTs president, Barry Knight, the broker-dealer is devoted to offering the most advanced investment strategies to its advisors, who can in turn pass insight along to their clients. NEXT is on the forefront of implementing strategies to help better inform our representatives about how they can, in turn, better inform their customers, says Knight. As in any business, regardless of industry, communication is essential.

Knight goes on to highlight the important role ongoing education plays in the development of NEXT representatives. We want our representatives to not only be informed, but also educated on current events that could both positively or negatively affect their business, he says.

Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal agrees the level of continual education is essential. Advisors can often be tripped up by the emotions of their clients, especially when those clients are armed with headlines from a financial publication or newspaper. The role of the investor is to bring sound judgment and clarity to the table.

Real-Buzz.com Expands its Global Property Search to More than 70 Countries, Adds the MLS Listings of Both Mexico and Costa Rica

Camden, SC (PRWEB) May 15, 2012

Real-Buzz.com has added the MLS listings of both Mexico and Costa Rica, expanding its global property search to more than 70 countries.

Cross-border real estate investment is a driving force in real estate markets globally. Although many buyers are coming to invest in the US, there is a growing trend for affluent Baby Boomers to buy properties south of the border for vacation and retirement.

Real estate professionals in every country are seeking efficient marketing channels to reach buyers who are searching across borders, often all cash buyers at the higher end of the property market, said Janet Choynowski, CEO of the Real Buzz Immobel Group.

Our members truly appreciate the importance of International buyers in Mexico and we welcome Real-Buzz.com as a vital marketing channel for our members to effectively reach buyers from all over the world, said Guadalupe Duran, President of FIABCI Mexico and international director of AMPI, the Mexico National Association of Real Estate Professionals.

Aleyda Bonilla, president of the National Costa Rica MLS CCCBR said, Global marketing exposure is crucial for our members and we are thrilled to provide them with this unique opportunity to have their listings translated and show all over the world on Real-Buzz.com.

These days globalization is at the top of the wish list for every major franchise and brokerage group because they want to attract and retain top producing agents… and those agents need global marketing in order to win trophy listings, Choynowski said.

Real-Buzz.com provides a unique global real estate portal where viewers can search and view properties in more than 70 countries, with the entire search and all property details professionally translated into their own preferred language.

Chinese is the fastest growing language on the Internet and the Chinese are also enthusiastic buyers of international real estate.

It is now predicted that Chinese buyers alone will purchase US$ 50 billion of overseas property in 2012, more than US$ 40 of that outside the United States, so attracting international buyers is important for real estate professionals all over the world. Real-Buzz.com displays the listings from the US and more than 70 countries in both Mandarin and Cantonese, Choynowski noted.

For sellers in the United States, the International visibility Real-Buzz.com provides is important because foreign buyers spent $ 82 billion last year on US residential real estate.

International buyer activity increased about 20% over the previous year, making home sales to foreign buyers one of the few bright spots in our real estate market, Choynowski said.

When international viewers search for property on their local Google or other leading search engines using common search terms like house for sale or real estate in their own (foreign) languages, Real-Buzz.com holds top positions for popular cities including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Sarasota, Orlando, Las Vegas, Dallas, Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Real-Buzz.com also holds top positions for English language searches for international destinations.

We believe that Real-Buzz.com will prove to be a vital marketing channel enabling the professionals in Costa Rica and Mexico to effectively connect with interested US buyers, Choynowski added. We are very pleased to add these popular locations to our growing coverage of real estate globally.

About Real-Buzz:

The result of the merger last year between Immobel, the leading provider of globalization technology to the real estate industry and Real Buzz Media, the Real-Buzz.com portal combines the latest in social media features and a fully multilingual platform to create the leading global information exchange for real estate.

The Real-Buzz.com portal displays property listings from the largest Realtor? and MLS organizations including CRMLS (California) , MLSLI ( New York), MIAMI, Fort Lauderdale Realtors? , Las Vegas Realtors ?, AMPI (Mexico) CCCBR (Costa Rica) and FNAIM (France) all professionally translated into English, Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese (Mandarin) and Chinese (Cantonese).

Under the Immobel? brand the company provides custom globalization technology, services and consultancy to real estate organizations, brokerages, technology vendors and franchise groups both in the United States and internationally.

The founder of Immobel, Janet Choynowski now serves as CEO of the Real Buzz Immobel Group.
