NVAR’s Cultural Forums
Meet NVAR’s Reciprocal Countries
NVAR has Honorary Reciprocal Agreements (also known as Memorandums of Understanding or MOUs) with several international real estate associations. We look forward to expanding these relationships to provide value and ease of access to resources and networks across borders.
The Why
NVAR believes in the power of collaboration. We want to provide our members with ease-of-access to organizations around the world and to help them grow their businesses.
What is an Honorary Reciprocal Agreement?
An Honorary Reciprocal Agreement (also commonly known as a Memorandum of Understanding or MOU) is a written agreement without financial obligation to provide collaborative opportunities to do business, and promote their respective markets and regions.
NVAR is the Ambassador Association to Peru!
