I am looking for a real estate agent to help me with the sale of my house. An agent with international connections would be best suited. Please send a PM for details.

When you are aiming at the overseas market my preference would be Remax, C21, Sotheby's, Christie's - in that order. They're all Franchisees.
The latter 2 are mainly dealing with the more expensive properties.
Read the small print very carefully and don't commit yourself for more than 3 months when it is an exclusive.
Agents usually work purely on commission, and tend to pocket only 50% of the commission agreed between the seller and the Franchisee.
Therefore an extra 1% or 2% on top of the agreed commission, paid directly to the individually selling agent (and not to their boss) may help. After all, a 1% bonus works out as a 40% on what she would normally collect.

I have contacted Remax and Century 21, the rest doesn't seem to operate in Brazil. Now let's see if they will get back to me.
Coldwell and Christie's do operate here but they are to high end.
