Cultural and Language Issues Cultural and language issues faced by Realtors when working with international clients have eased somewhat in recent years. Seventy percent of respondents reported they have not had problems when working with international clients. In past years, as few as 42% reported no problems working with international clients. The decline in those reporting problems is associated from the larger fraction of the respondents who could speak another language and were born abroad. Forty-five percent of respondents reported they are fluent in a language other than English, the highest share since this question was asked in the 2008 survey. A third of respondents were born outside the United States.
