Miami Realtors + RWorld champions south Florida internationally

Miami Realtors + RWorld is expanding its international outreach efforts with appearances at two major global real estate conferences this month: Realtor Quest 2026 in Toronto and SIMA 2026 in Madrid.

The organization said the events are part of long-running strategy to increase worldwide exposure for Miami and South Florida while generating new international business and investment opportunities.

“Nobody out-globals Miami,” said Teresa King Kinney, co-CEO of Miami Realtors + RWorld. “For 30+ years, we have been exhibiting and presenting at international conferences, and they have helped build the Miami international brand we all know today. It’s at these events where we meet with investors and launch more investment opportunities for South Florida and the world.”

Miami Realtors and RWorld announced their merger in April, with the deal becoming effective this past Monday and creating a 93,000-member association. The MLSs will initially remain separate, with a full combination expected later, and the unified MLS is projected to be the third largest in the U.S.

According to the association’s latest global study, Canada and Spain rank as the fourth and fifth largest sources of international buyers in south Florida.

The first stop will be Realtor Quest 2026, hosted by the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board Wednesday and Thursday in Toronto.

The event is considered Canada’s largest real estate conference and trade show and is expected to attract more than 11,000 real estate professionals from around the world.

Following Toronto, Miami Realtors + RWorld will travel to Madrid for SIMA 2026, scheduled for May 20-23.

SIMA is one of Europe’s largest real estate events and is expected to draw more than 21,000 real estate professionals, investors and private buyers.

King Kinney will speak at the conference on May 21, presenting insights on the Miami and Florida housing markets as part of the featured speaker lineup.

Miami Realtors + RWorld’s exhibit in Madrid will include branding centered around South Florida’s investment appeal, featuring the tagline: “Miami & South Florida… An Investment for a Lifetime.”

The organization also announced plans to join the Global Data Exchange, an international initiative designed to allow MLSs and real estate organizations to share public listing data across multiple countries.
