Discovering the Expectations
of Multicultural Homebuyers

Marian will take us through a 10-step ?customer journey? of the home buying process, from how they?ve heard about the builder to move-in and warranty. She will share expectations and mis-perceptions from different cultural backgrounds, and ways you can make the experience easier at each customer touch point. Learn how to be the homebuilder or service provider multicultural customers trust and invite their cousins to trust, too!
