How Reputable Are The Real Estate Courses Offered By Real Estate Companies?

Posted by Dustin Dempsey on July 1, 2009 // 3 Comments

I am interested in going into real estate when I finish college and have been looking around at schools. Century 21 offers their own course (3 weeks) and another real estate company offers one for 6 weeks while the community college offers one for 8 months that trains you how to appraise and broker as well as just getting your license to sell.
Which program is best and what is the difference between being a real estate agent (seller) and a broker?
The costs range from $600-$2500

What Can A Real Estate Agent And Broker Require You To Sign In A Real Estate Deal?

Posted by Dustin Dempsey on June 30, 2009 // 4 Comments

I am in escrow on some property in which the seller and his real estate agent were not very forthcoming in their disclosure statements. Through a third party I found out some things about the property that are detriments (such as occassional flooding) but I am willing to overlook them and still purchase the property. I have released all my contingencies and we have a close date set.
My real estate agent happened to tell the seller’s real estate agent that we found out some of these things on the property – most importantly about the flooding – and now the selling real estate agent wants me to sign a bunch of documents listing out what I found out as if she had told me about them. I don’t want to do it – it took considerable effort for me to uncover these issues and I have already signed off on contingencies. I don’t think I need to also let her off the hook as if she had disclosed these things to me – she did not. Can the realtor force me to sign these?
