PRESIDENT’S CORNER
Summer thoughts from the President A good summer read — Unlocking the Customer Value Chain by Thales S. Teixeira Ever wonder why some companies are struggling to survive or are no longer here to serve their customers? Sears, JCPenney, Blockbuster, Compaq Computers and many others. Ever wonder how some needed to change their marketing strategies and how they serve their customers or how they make a profit? Reprinted from the books preface There is a pattern to digital disruption in an industry, whether the disruptor is Uber, Airbnb, Dollar Shave Club, Pillpack or one of countless other startups that have stolen large portions of market share from industry leaders, often in a matter of a few years. As Teixeira makes clear, the nature of competition has fundamentally changed. Using innovative new business models, startups are stealing customers by breaking the links in how consumers discover, buy and use the products and services. By decoupling the customer value chain, these startups, instead of taking on the Unilevers Nikes, BMW’s and Sephoras of the world head on, peel away a piece of the consumer purchasing process. Birchbox offered women a new way to sample beauty products from a variety of companies from the convenience of their homes, Turo doesn't compete with GM. Instead, it offers people the benefit of driving without having to own a car themselves. Illustrated with vivid, in depth and exclusive accounts of both startups, and reigning incumbents like Best Buy and Comcast, as they struggle to respond, Unlocking the Customer Value Chain is an essential guide to demystifying how digital disruption takes place – and what companies
can do to defend themselves." - source Amazon book highlights. For Brokers or REALTORS® who are looking to take advantage of an ever-changing market and who need to stay competitive, doing the same thing every year may not be the best solution. Our industry is constantly changing and what works yesterday may not work tomorrow. Customers are always looking for the best value and if we do not offer value, they will seek a solution from other sources. As REALTORS®, we must communicate our value to the consumer or risk the consumers not seeing the whole value picture. I highly recommend this book for your summer or fall reading. I welcome any emails or comments from you on this topic as well. Valuable NAR benefit — As you can see from the comments above, I love reading ebooks at home or listening to audiobooks in the car. A special NAR benefit I do not think many REALTORS® know about is the ability to borrow and download free ebooks to your computer, tablet or an Amazon kindle. They have over 5,000 ebooks, 1,000 Audiobooks, many with no waiting list. If you enjoy reading or listening to books as I do, I highly recommend you check out this NAR benefit. I love it and it's included in your member dues! Visit realtor.overdrive.com.
On a similar note, if you have an interest in volunteering as a member of our committees it will soon be time to sign up. We have over 20 different committees and subcommittees and I am confident you will find something that would inspire you or help you grow in your business. We welcome the help, advice and work our members do to support Greater Tampa REALTORS®. While we are on the topic, I would like to note that our committee meetings are never closed except for Grievance. If you are thinking of joining a committee in 2020 as a member, you are welcome to attend as a guest this year. Please stop by, introduce yourself and see what it is all about before actually committing to join. Leadership Quotes “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” — Winston Churchill “If you think you are too small to be effective, you have never been in bed with a mosquito.” – Betty Reese
DAN HAZY 2019 President

LEGAL FAQs
CODE OF ETHICS Request for Arbitration Expenses
R
EALTOR® A, the listing broker, and REALTOR® B, a cooperating broker, engaged in a heated dispute as to which REALTOR® was the procuring cause of a sale and, therefore, entitled to the commission. Finding that they could not resolve the matter themselves, they agreed to arbitrate in accordance with Article 17 of the Code of Ethics. REALTOR® A initiated the request for arbitration with a letter to the Board; the letter was received and reviewed by the Grievance Committee which agreed that it was an arbitrable matter. The case was sent on to the Professional Standards Committee for a hearing. The President of the Board, consistent with the Board’s Code of Ethics and Arbitration Manual, appointed a five-member Hearing Panel to hear the case. The proper forms agreeing to the arbitration were sent to both REALTORS®, each signed his agreement and returned it to the Professional Standards Administrator. Prior to the date set for the hearing, REALTOR® A learned that REALTOR® B had practiced law before he entered the real estate business. REALTOR® A then decided that he would be at a disadvantage in presenting his case to the Hearing Panel without an attorney due to the legal background of REALTOR® B. REALTOR® A sent in an amended arbitration request in which he asked that he be awarded the commission and attorney’s fees and any other administrative expenses that he might incur in the presentation of his case before the Hearing Panel. The Chairperson accepted the amended complaint as part of the case and mailed REALTOR® B a copy.
The case was set and a hearing was held at which REALTOR® A appeared with his attorney and a court reporter. REALTOR® B acted as his own attorney. The Hearing Panel had the Board’s attorney and a Professional Standards Administrator with a tape recorder present. After giving both parties the opportunity to present their case, the Hearing Panel adjourned the hearing and went into executive session to reach a decision. It was the opinion of the Hearing Panel that the arbitration process is provided to all REALTORS® and REALTOR-Associates® by the Board to avoid any unnecessary expenses. The hiring of an attorney was REALTOR® A’s own decision, not required by Article 17 of the Code of Ethics, the Hearing Panel, the Code of Ethics and Arbitration Manual, or the Board of REALTORS®. The Hearing Panel decided the commission dispute based strictly on the merits of the case presented. The Hearing Panel disallowed the request by REALTOR® A that he be awarded attorney’s fees or other administrative expenses.

Q: My buyer made an offer, and the seller made a counteroffer. My buyer countered the seller’s counteroffer, and the seller rejected it. Now, my buyer wants to go ahead and accept the seller’s original counteroffer. May he? A: No. The buyer’s counteroffer served as a rejection of the seller’s counteroffer. Since the seller’s counteroffer was rejected it may no longer be accepted.
Q: I’m representing a customer with an executed contract. The contract has inconsistencies between the preprinted provisions and the handwritten addendum. The handwritten addendum is in direct conflict with some of the preprinted terms on the contract. Which terms will govern? A: Handwritten and typed terms will generally prevail over preprinted terms that are in direct conflict

YOUNG PROFESSIONALS
YPNDEN
Developing Your Global Business
Are you a young professional who's hungry to expand their business to the global market? Maybe you have taken the “Introduction to International Real Estate” designed by Florida REALTORS® or perhaps you are a new “Certified International Property Specialist” designee. You may even have just completed the course at GTR last month. Preparation meets opportunity, of course. And the small everyday things you may do to grow your business today, organically may be more natural than you ever considered. How can YPN help with your global development? Some Subcommittee members travel and attend different conferences and trade shows. During this year’s REALTOR® Quest in Toronto, YPN member, Sherman Milton III attended the 2019 REALTOR® Quest in Toronto, Canada. Milton said, "I loved the interactions with the Canadian Realtors and other Florida Realtors in round table discussion to identify how to best market and brand their business needs specific to geography and products across both borders of our countries in North America.” Each of us hold in our hands, a device that allows us to be one click away from contacting someone on the other side of the globe. Our smartphones, iPads, the internet, apps and social media platforms have made it more accessible than ever to connect with family and friends around the world. Our diversified city also reinforces this. Many of our colleagues are from other countries around our globe and already are using this ease of connectivity for acquisitions in their native lands. That same ease of connectivity works well in our real estate businesses too. So many of us visit one or more social media platform daily. We already have developed a habit that may help grow our business.
Check out this free service, included in our MLS Membership. “It’s the global leader in digital real estate marketing solutions for agents, brokers and developers.” as stated by Caroline Dozier, Product Support Associate. Review her recorded webinar and you’ll learn that, as Caroline states, “Proxio Developer is the global LinkedIn for real estate.” Explore your options. Growing your global business may be an explosive difference that may meet a small personal vacationing goal you may have. Or, it may be the niche you’ve been trying to develop. If you’ve gone from, perhaps, a joke about having a getaway abroad, that joke may be reciprocal for a purchase in the U.S. “When you realize that international buyers purchase property in Florida more than in any other state — you start to understand why Florida REALTORS® works to help build real estate relationships all over the globe,” according to FloridaRealtors.com NAR's 2018 Profile of International Residential Real Estate Activity survey found that: Foreign buyers purchased $22.9 billion of Florida’s existing detached single-family, townhomes, and condominiums during the reference period of the 2018 survey, a five percent decline from the level during the previous 12-month period ($24.2 billion) according to Global Business Director, Maria Grulich.

Baby Boomers Are Moving Overseas
How to Assist Clients Retiring to Foreign Countries by Tamiracle Williams
M
ore and more United States citizens are moving to foreign countries after retirement. *A recent U.S. Social Security Administration report found that 700,000 retirees live in foreign countries. Many of these retirees are baby boomers, who are currently between the ages of 55-75. Baby boomers are moving overseas for three main reasons: 1) They want to save money. 2) They are on a pilgrimage to return to their native roots. 3) They are seeking a new, exciting adventure. Argentina, Australia, Belize, Chile and Columbia are some of the best places to retire according to a Forbes article published in November of 2018. Many Americans believe that they can just up and move to another country whenever, but there is more to it than just getting a passport. Here are a few things to discuss with your client if he or she is considering overseas retirement. • Affordability, cost of living and tax • Safety and ability to travel back to the United States • Prevalence of the English language • The political and cultural climate • Healthcare and Insurance Resources such as irs.gov and travel.state.gov can be a great tool to learn about some of these topics. They even include details on travel advisory and restrictions for U.S. citizens. After your client has decided on a retirement destination have them visit the usembassy.gov to learn about the specific requirements needed to obtain temporary residency in a particular country. To better assist your client, consider partnering with a REALTOR® who specializes in international real estate and business.

What to expect from the Certified International Property Specialist Designation
Take Your Business to the Next Level by Terri Ramsey
As an experienced REALTOR®, I work largely with foreign investors. I have taken a number of classes and achieved certifications and designations all of which I found helpful. But somehow I felt something was missing. Following a desire to take my business to the next level, I decided I would take a closer look at the Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) designation. I read the description of the class and saw there was a bundle being offered, so I decided I was going to take the plunge. I was not ready for what followed. There was a tidal wave of resources, generous firsthand experiences from leaders in this arena and perhaps, best of all, a bond with a circle of other Global REALTORS® that has changed the way I look at the world and my career. What could be so profound you ask? Genuine, highly qualified instructors sharing first-hand knowledge and I mean no holding back. The room was full of other REALTORS®, many of whom are
from all over the world, who each brought their own unique perspective and reactions. The class focused on resources that we already have access to, which are paid for by our dues to NAR, Florida REALTORS® and Greater Tampa REALTORS®. That's right, not only did I get a box full of tools but instructions on how to use them for maximum affect. If you're in the global arena or think you might want to get started, then I highly recommend the CIPS Designation. Also, don't miss the opportunity to join our local chapter of Tampa Bay International Real Estate Council. I have found my place in the sun and hope you will as well. Terri Ramsey is a REALTOR® with Future Home Realty. She is a member of the Tampa Bay International Real Estate Council.

AFFILIATE CORNER
Strength in Numbers Connecting with Fellow Affiliate Members We all have heard this phrase before. I’m not referring to the Golden State Warriors marketing slogan. Nor am I referring to the bluegrass supergroup from the 80s. No, I’m referring to the definition by Mark Shields. “The more individuals that rally to your cause - the better.” In every issue of the Tampa REALTOR®, just under the narrative from the Affiliates Chair, is a list of new Affiliates that have recently joined Greater Tampa REALTORS®. These are fellow members that have made the investment in themselves and their business. They strive to build relationships and add value to other GTR members, the REALTOR® members. Reach out to these new members. Welcome them and be open to what they have to offer. You just might a new friend along with a new service provider. On July 15, the Affiliates hosted their annual REALTOR® Panel. HUGE thank you to Jay Quigley, Ellie Lambert, Barbara Jordan, Alberto Baalbaki and Lauren Smith – the REALTOR® and Broker panelists who shared with the Affiliates the value propositions REALTOR® are looking for when selecting Affiliates to refer clients to.
JAY WAZELLE 2019 Affiliates Chair
Party with a Purpose is scheduled for August 2 at the O’Brien’s Irish Pub in Brandon. Besides being a fundraiser for the REALTOR® Care Foundation, if you bring a backpack loaded with school supplies, Marie Combs has arranged for those items to get delivered to school children in the area who are in need. Thank you, Marie! Again, check eConnections for the details. The Affiliates Subcommittee meets the second Wednesday of each month at 11 a.m. If you are a new Affiliate or a seasoned one and want to get involved, come to the meeting. You’ll meet some great folks and have a chance to hear about what we’re planning and executing.
