Property Condition Discovery and Disclosure Compliance

The most basic definition of disclosure is to reveal something that was hidden. In real estate, sellers are required to disclose property defects that are visible or hidden if there is a possibility that knowledge of the defect will have an impact on a potential buyer’s purchasing decision.

Completing the disclosure process as required by federal and state laws and regulations is imperative to the soundness of a signed purchase agreement and buyer satisfaction. This course will cover key information to ensure you are better able to fulfill an agent’s duty of disclosure for both seller and buyer clients.

Real Estate Safety: Protect Yourself and Your Clients

Statistically speaking, real estate is a very safe profession. However, there are many potential dangers that agents and their clients are exposed to. While the number of work-related deaths and injuries in the real estate profession are relatively low, they do exist. Female real estate agents are more likely to become victims than men; however, men are not immune. Buyers and sellers also face risks from cyber theft to personal property damage and theft, to assaults.


Think about it: real estate licensees often meet complete strangers by themselves, in vacant properties, at odd hours, with little or no background information on the prospect. When you think about our profession in this way, the job can sound dangerous. We can reduce this risk with some basic safety protocols. Even if your brokerage has a set of security procedures, there are additional steps you can take to keep yourself and your clients safe. The truth is that many brokerages rely on individual agents to establish their own safety measures

What Everyone Should Know About Their Credit History

Can you imagine paying cash for all your purchases? Saving up to purchase property with 100% down? Up until relatively recently, that was the way purchasing occurred. Credit was not handed out or even solicited, and purchasing property came after years of diligent saving. Today, most consumer goods, and property is purchased with mortgage credit. It is estimated that 80% of consumer goods, and 70% of all residential properties are purchased with credit. Even with the prevalence of credit, recent events and changes in credit availability have led to many potential property buyers being unable to afford the property they desire. Being able to counsel people on improving their financial standing can not only improve your service to current clients, it can also be used as a marketing tool to attract and help new clients!
