Course Description

Residential real estate requires more than showing a property. Buyers and sellers often raise questions about exterior conditions, environmental concerns, pests, weather risks, and practical upgrades that affect safety, function, and marketability. A broad working knowledge of these topics supports clearer communication, stronger risk awareness, and appropriate referrals during a transaction.

Homeownership also involves ongoing maintenance and problem-solving. Issues such as drainage performance, indoor air hazards, infestations, storm damage, and accessibility needs can influence property value, insurability, disclosures, and buyer expectations. Recognizing common warning signs and understanding general response considerations supports responsible real estate practice.

Home Savvy: Popular Modifications, Environmental Management, and More examines a wide range of residential topics organized into five primary areas: Outdoor Elements, Home Health, Pests, Hazardous Weather and Natural Disasters, and Home Modifications. Within these areas, the course reviews common features and conditions that affect property performance, along with practical considerations that arise when homeowners maintain, improve, or respond to problems in and around the home.

Course Description

Severe weather and natural disasters can significantly impact residential property condition, value, insurability, and marketability. From hail and flooding to earthquakes and fires, environmental events present risks that real estate professionals must understand in order to effectively support buyers and sellers.

Real estate licensees are often among the first professionals homeowners turn to when preparing for, responding to, or recovering from a weather-related event. While real estate professionals do not replace inspectors, engineers, or insurance specialists, a working knowledge of common risks, mitigation strategies, and recovery considerations is essential to competent representation.

This course examines the causes, property impacts, and practical considerations associated with major natural hazards. It explores preventive measures, visible indicators of damage, insurance implications, and appropriate referral practices. Emphasis is placed on helping professionals recognize issues that may influence disclosures, inspections, negotiations, and transaction timelines.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: Hail: Formation, regional risk factors, common property damage, inspection considerations, and insurance basics.

Plus, we'll tackle the heavy hitters—Zillow/Trulia, Realtor.com, and Homes.com—and how to leverage them so they work for your business, not against it.

Grab a coffee, settle in, and let's upgrade your marketing game.

Course Description

Environmental hazards inside a home can significantly impact the health and safety of occupants. Real estate professionals are often the first point of contact when buyers or sellers have questions about potential environmental risks within a property. Understanding these hazards helps agents recognize potential concerns, communicate effectively with clients, and ensure proper disclosure during real estate transactions.

This course examines several environmental hazards commonly encountered in residential properties, including lead, asbestos, mold, indoor air quality issues, carbon monoxide, radon, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and pesticides. You will learn where these hazards are commonly found, the health risks associated with exposure, and the circumstances in which they may become a concern during a real estate transaction.

The course also reviews disclosure responsibilities and best practices for real estate professionals when these issues arise. By the end of the course, licensees will be better prepared to recognize potential environmental hazards, understand their implications, and guide clients toward appropriate professional resources.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

Unit 1: Lead
Examines the presence of lead in residential properties, where it is commonly found, the health risks associated with exposure, and the federal disclosure requirements that apply to real estate transactions involving older homes.

Unit 2: Asbestos
Explores the use of asbestos in construction materials, the health risks associated with exposure, how asbestos-containing materials may appear in residential properties, and relevant disclosure considerations.

Unit 3: Allergens, Asthma, and Mold
Discusses common indoor allergens and mold issues that may affect occupants’ health, how these conditions develop within homes, and how real estate professionals can identify potential warning signs.

Unit 4: Air Quality and Carbon Monoxide
Reviews indoor and outdoor air quality concerns that can impact residential properties, including the sources and dangers of carbon monoxide exposure.

Unit 5: Radon and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
Examines radon gas and VOCs, how these substances enter or accumulate in homes, the health risks they pose, and how they may be identified during real estate transactions.

Unit 6: Pesticides and Household Chemical Hazards
Covers the use of pesticides in residential settings, potential health risks associated with exposure, and considerations for real estate professionals when these substances are present on a property.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:

• Identify health risks and disclosure requirements for lead and asbestos-containing materials

• Analyze factors contributing to indoor allergens and mold to formulate mitigation strategies

• Evaluate sources of poor air quality and carbon monoxide to improve indoor safety

• Explain the hazards of radon and VOCs while ensuring regulatory disclosure compliance

• Outline pesticide-related risks and implement proper disclosure practices in transactions

Course Description

Acquiring an investment property is only the beginning of the ownership cycle. Long-term performance depends on effective property management, consistent tenant policies, regulatory compliance, and disciplined operational oversight. Strong management practices protect income, preserve asset value, and reduce exposure to risk.

Real estate professionals may advise investor clients on management decisions, assist owners in evaluating professional management services, or oversee rental operations directly. In each role, understanding the operational realities of rental property ownership is essential to supporting stable cash flow and long-term asset performance.

This course focuses on the practical fundamentals of managing single-family rental properties. It examines the decision to self-manage or hire professional property management, outlines common fee structures and responsibilities, and reviews the policies that promote consistency and reduce liability.

The course also addresses tenant screening and selection, application verification procedures, rent collection practices, and fair housing considerations. Finally, it explores renovation and upgrade strategies designed to enhance property appeal, improve efficiency, and strengthen overall investment performance.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: Self-Management or Hiring Professionals: Evaluation of management responsibilities, required skills, and common compensation structures.

• Unit 2: Establishing Health and Rental Policies: Review of environmental considerations, rental standards, and security deposit procedures.

• Unit 3: Tenant Management and Screening: Analysis of tenant selection practices and compliance considerations.

• Unit 4: Accepting and Verifying Applications: Overview of application review, income verification, deposit handling, and rent collection policies.

• Unit 5: Renovating Units to Add Value: Examination of cost-effective upgrades and maintenance decisions that influence property performance.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Evaluate the decision between self-management and professional management based on capacity and cost

• Develop consistent rental policies, lease structures, and security deposit procedures to manage risk

• Implement objective tenant screening and selection processes to ensure fair housing compliance

• Execute professional application, verification, and move-in procedures to secure qualified tenants

Course Description

Real estate investing is more than buying property at the right price. Successful investors understand how to evaluate markets, analyze risk, interpret economic trends, and recognize opportunity before others do. Whether you are representing an investor client or considering investing yourself, the principles remain the same.

Every investment decision is influenced by location, supply and demand, lease structure, market cycles, and valuation fundamentals. This course is designed to help you think like an investor by breaking down those components into practical, usable tools.

Throughout this course, you will examine how investors analyze opportunities from the ground up. We approach the material as though you are evaluating properties for your own portfolio, allowing you to apply these concepts regardless of your professional role.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: Deciding Where to Invest: Identify regional and local economic indicators that signal investment potential, including population growth, job growth, and barriers to entry.

• Unit 2: Investigating Your Local Market: Analyze supply and demand factors, absorption rates, occupancy levels, rent trends, and the impact of development and condominium conversions.

• Unit 3: Evaluating Neighborhoods and Market Cycles: Assess neighborhood quality, government influences, market cycles, and the timing of buyers’ and sellers’ markets.

• Unit 4: Analyzing Leases: Examine residential and commercial lease structures, identify common lease issues, and understand how lease terms directly affect property value.

• Unit 5: Understanding Property Valuation: Apply core economic principles, determine the highest and best use, distinguish between market value and investment value, and evaluate standard value benchmarks.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Identify regional and local economic indicators that signal investment potential

• Analyze supply and demand factors and market trends to evaluate investment risk

• Assess neighborhood quality and market cycles to determine optimal investment timing

Course Description

Identifying opportunity and structuring an agreement are only part of the investment process. Once a contract is in place, investors must verify assumptions, investigate risk, confirm legal and financial details, and successfully move the transaction to closing. Careful due diligence and disciplined execution are what protect profitability and prevent costly mistakes.

Real estate professionals may represent investor clients during escrow or assist sellers in navigating investor transactions. In either role, understanding the due diligence process, title considerations, and closing procedures is essential to safeguarding client interests and ensuring a smooth transfer of ownership.

This course focuses on what happens after an agreement is accepted. You will examine the formal due diligence period, review property and financial documentation, analyze inspection findings, and explore how investors negotiate credits and adjustments during escrow. The course also addresses how ownership is held and how different legal structures can affect liability, taxation, and long-term planning.

Finally, you will review the steps required to close a transaction, including insurance considerations, final settlement statements, deed recording, and the transfer of possession.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: Opening Escrow: Understand the escrow process, review the preliminary title report, and identify key timelines that influence the closing date.

• Unit 2: Conducting Formal Due Diligence: Examine property records, financial documents, inspections, and negotiation strategies used during the investigation period.

• Unit 3: Holding Title: Compare ownership structures, including sole proprietorships, partnerships, joint tenancy, tenancy in common, LLCs, and corporations.

• Unit 4: Closing the Transaction: Analyze the closing process, insurance requirements, final settlement statements, deed recording, and transfer of ownership.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Explain the escrow process and the significance of preliminary title reports

• Perform comprehensive due diligence through record review and property inspections

• Evaluate ownership structures and legal entities for liability and tax benefits

• Interpret closing statements and coordinate final settlement requirements

• Manage the transition of ownership through insurance, recording, and possession

Course Description

America represents equality of opportunity for ALL persons. The rich diversity of its citizens and the spirit of unity that binds us all, symbolize the principles of freedom and justice upon which this nation was founded. That is why it is disturbing when minorities, families with children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities are denied the housing of their choice because of illegal discrimination.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) enforces the Fair Housing Act along with other federal laws that prohibit discrimination and the intimidation of people in their homes, apartment buildings, and condominium developments - and nearly all housing transactions, including the rental and sale of housing and the provision of mortgage loans.

Equal access to rental housing and homeownership opportunities is the cornerstone of this nation's federal housing policy. Owners who refuse to rent or sell homes to people based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability violate federal law, and HUD will vigorously pursue them.

Housing discrimination is not only illegal, but it also contradicts the principles of freedom and opportunity we treasure as Americans. HUD is committed to ensuring everyone is treated equally when searching for a place to call home.

This course will highlight the prominent fair housing and fair lending laws that every real estate licensee needs to be aware of when selling or leasing real property. It will also address the role that HUD plays in fair housing, the rights of LGBTQ persons, advertising issues with the Voluntary Affirmative Marketing Agreement (VAMA), and what could happen if a violation occurs.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: Federal Fair Housing Laws
• Unit 2: Federal Fair Lending Laws
• Unit 3: Special Topics Regarding Fair Housing
• Unit 4: The Complaint Process

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Explain the historical foundations and legislative framework of U.S. fair housing laws

• Identify protected classes and prohibited discriminatory conduct in housing transactions

• Describe the requirements of federal lending and accessibility regulations

• Define the roles of HUD, FHEO, and industry-specific marketing agreements

• Determine the proper procedures for reporting and processing fair housing violations

Course Description

Professional conduct is the foundation of public trust in real estate. The National Association of REALTORS® Code of Ethics establishes the standards of practice that distinguish REALTORS® from other real estate licensees and define the profession’s commitment to integrity, fairness, and consumer protection.

First adopted in 1913, the Code of Ethics was created to elevate professional standards and protect the public from unethical practices. Over time, it has evolved to reflect changes in the marketplace while maintaining its core purpose: ensuring that buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and the public receive honest and competent representation. The Code extends beyond minimum legal requirements and sets measurable expectations for professional conduct.

This 3-hour continuing education course provides a comprehensive review of the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice, including its historical development, structure, and practical application. The course reproduces the Code as adopted by the National Association of REALTORS® and examines key Articles through discussion and case study analysis.

In addition to reviewing duties owed to clients, customers, the public, and other REALTORS®, this course explains the ethics complaint process, possible disciplinary actions, and the role of mediation and arbitration. The course concludes with an overview of the Pathways to Professionalism tool, which provides guidance for maintaining respectful and professional conduct in all business interactions.

Course Topics

This course covers the following topics:

• Unit 1: History of the Code of Ethics: Development of the Code and the foundational principles reflected in the Preamble.
• Unit 2: Duties to Clients and Customers: Obligations related to loyalty, disclosure, cooperation, and client representation.
• Unit 3: Duties to the Public: Standards addressing discrimination, truthful communication, and responsible marketing.
• Unit 4: Duties to REALTORS®: Professional conduct expectations in broker relationships, dispute resolution, and arbitration.
• Unit 5: The Ethics Complaint Process: Overview of complaint procedures, common violations, and potential disciplinary outcomes.
• Unit 6: Pathways to Professionalism: Practical guidance for maintaining respect for clients, colleagues, and the public.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Summarize the history, structure, and foundational principles of the NAR Code of Ethics

• Apply the specific duties and standards of practice owed to clients and customers

• Analyze ethical obligations to the public regarding discrimination and truthful communication

• Evaluate professional responsibilities toward other REALTORS® and dispute resolution protocols

Course Description

Whether you are a seasoned agent or property manager, or just stepping into the world of rentals, this course is designed to feel less like a textbook and more like a conversation with a mentor.

Property management is about so much more than just collecting rent and fixing leaky faucets. At its heart, it’s a "people business."

This course covers the following topics:

• The Human Ingredient: Why hiring the right team and treating people well is your greatest competitive advantage.

• The Strategy: How to identify what makes a property unique and create real, lasting value (sometimes with nothing more than a fresh coat of paint!).

• The Operations: Streamlining your procedures so that vacancies go down, income goes up, and your day-to-day runs like clockwork.

• Effective Communication: Learning the art of listening and connecting with everyone from owners to residents.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Develop a staffing philosophy focused on talent and effective personnel management

• Apply strategic planning to recognize property uniqueness and create lasting value

• Implement streamlined procedures to ensure efficient day-to-day property operations

• Establish structured communication routines with site staff and property owners
