2026 NAR Global Research Report Survey
Help ensure REALTORS® from our market are represented in the 2026 International Residential Real Estate Business Survey. NAR is collecting responses on transactions involving international clients that took place between April 2025 and March 2026, and those responses will directly shape the next national report on international residential real estate activity.
If you have worked with international buyers or sellers, your insight helps strengthen the data, elevate global understanding of cross-border real estate activity, and make the final report more meaningful for the profession. As an added incentive, all completed submissions will be entered into a drawing for one of five Visa Gift Cards.
📅 Survey Focus: Transactions completed April 2025 – March 2026
