This landmark agreement aims to foster greater collaboration, facilitate information exchange, and create significant new business opportunities for real estate professionals in both Florida and Japan.
The partnership signifies a strategic move to deepen economic and professional ties between the two regions, coinciding with the upcoming launch of the first-ever nonstop passenger flights between Florida and Asia.

Expanding Global Reach
The MoU was formally signed in Tokyo by Florida Realtors President Tim Weisheyer and JARECO Chairman Masayuki Nakagawa. This collaboration is set to enhance the global real estate connections for Florida Realtors, opening up more avenues for mutual learning and investment.
"We’re proud to strengthen the bridge between our two markets and help Realtors in both countries find new pathways for success," stated Weisheyer.
