Two Orlando realtors step into national “global ambassador” roles

The Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association is pleased to announce that two of its REALTOR® members have been appointed to serve as National Association of REALTORS® global ambassadors in 2019.

Christian Bohyn, Windmaker Realty, has been named global ambassador to Belgium and the Netherlands while Zola Szerencses, Keller Williams Winter Park, has been named global ambassador to Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

Szerencses is an Apopka resident.

Bohyn is currently a director on the ORRA Board of Directors, while Szerencses is a past president (2014) of the association.

"Global ambassadors play a dynamic role in maintaining and expanding the breadth of the REALTOR® organization," says current ORRA President Lou Nimkoff. "With REALTORS® on all continents other than Antarctica, global ambassadors and alliances help REALTORS® expand their business beyond domestic borders. This is an especially important function in Orlando, where international homebuyers were involved in 11 percent of property transactions in 2017."

The formal role of global ambassadors is to assist NAR in maintaining relationships with foreign real estate associations. Ambassadors are tasked with both strengthening existing relationships and creating new opportunities.

Their goal is twofold:

1. Promote the REALTOR® brand through international REALTOR® membership, education, products, services, and networking events; and

2. Drive international business to REALTORS® nationwide.

The Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association, recognized as one of the most innovative local real estate associations in the country, represents more than 14,000 real estate professionals throughout Central Florida.
