In September, C.A.R. welcomed a trade mission from the<br />
Warsaw Real Estate Brokers’ Association. In addition to a tour<br />
of C.A.R., the visiting delegation learned about C.A.R. and our<br />
Industry Partners, how our MLS works with the Association,<br />
and how real estate financing works for individuals to purchase<br />
property here. The Global Real Estate Council also treated<br />
them to lunch at Cliff Dwellers.<br />
