You Can't Say That! Antitrust in Real Estate class will be held IN PERSON!
When the Sherman Act began regulating antitrust behaviors in the United States, the union had 42 states and women were 30 years away from being able to vote. A lot has changed over the past 130 years but in his Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy, President Biden issues a reminder that antitrust continues to be a problem in real estate. This session examines the 3 primary federal laws regulating antitrust and applies them to situations happening today.

I’ve Got My Eye on You! Surveillance & Real Estate class will be held IN PERSON!
A quick Amazon search or Best Buy browse will reveal dozens of various cameras and recording devices that are easily hidden from sight that allow sellers to record activity in their home when it’s for sale. Whether the device is there for the seller's peace of mind, or to provide the seller with an advantage at the negotiation table, agents need to have a plan in place to handle the “nanny cam conundrum.” With nearly 80% of all web traffic being video-driven, the use of drones to capture amazing footage of a property is on the rise. This course addresses the question: What are the rules that apply to drone usage and what should agents know about them?

Broker Power Hour - Real Estate Fraud: How Brokers Can Protect Themselves & Their Clients class will be held via ZOOM.
The real estate market has ushered in major changes including the continued rise of fraud. Not only are you seeing more instances like seller impersonation personally, but your clients are being targeted ever more aggressively.
A recent survey of U.S. home buyers and sellers found that nearly 1 in 4 of them are potentially targeted during a closing, with 1 in 20 saying they fell victim. This type of crime has risen to $446M in reported losses annually according to the FBI. In this webinar, we’ll share what you can do to better protect yourself and your clients. We’ll cover topics such as:
- The main types of fraud schemes, including a demonstration of how AI is used to manipulate your buyers
- Consumer expectations of their REALTORS®
- Red flags every agent should watch for, and resources to prevent fraudulent sellers and wires
- Steps to take immediately when you suspect fraud
In honor of NAR's September Safety Month, please join us to learn how you can ensure safer closings for you and your clients.

Agency in TN class will be held IN PERSON.
Why does someone obtain a real estate license? The answer really has nothing to do with the right to buy or sell real estate. Anyone with enough money or financing can do that! A real estate license is all about representation. The license permits someone to represent another party in the purchase or sale of real estate, to safeguard their interests, to treat them honestly, to serve them with professionalism. Agency at its heart is not a difficult or complex concept. It’s all about representing a consumer conscientiously, doing so with the consumer’s understanding and written agreement, steering clear of any conflicts of interest, and ensuring that—at any time in the transaction—everyone in the transaction knows whom the licensee does and doesn’t represent. This course takes you through common misconceptions about agency law in Tennessee, as well as a section-by-section presentation of the law itself with a brief commentary on each section.
Course material will be emailed prior to class.

Can a buyer get money to be used as a down payment on an FHA loan…with no second mortgage on the property?
-
Can a buyer with a 620 credit score be approved?
-
What THDA-administered program can help unemployed or underemployed homeowners make their mortgage payments and even bring arrearages current?
The answers to all of these questions may allow a transaction to close. Whereas, without this knowledge, your buyer may be told that they have insufficient funds to close, or have unacceptable ratios, or have a credit score that regular investors will not approve. Your knowledge of THDA requirements may allow your transaction to close with THDA.
Course material will be provided during class.

DESCRIPTION
Occasionally, you may get a showing request from an appraiser or real estate licensee who isn’t an MLS user affiliated with one of our eKey reciprocity partners. So, we’ve enabled a new feature in your Supra eKey – Single Access!
Single Access allows listing agents on a case-by-case basis to invite the property owner, or out-of-area appraisers or real estate licensees to access a keybox at a specific date/time. Single Access offers:
-
Secure, limited, and non-transferable access
-
Access credentials delivered to the out-of-area licensee’s smartphone
-
Easy to view, modify and manage granted access within the Supra eKEY app
-
Out-of-area licensees have a “one-button” (i.e., Obtain Key) within the Supra eKEY app that provides easy access to obtain keys from Supra lockboxes.
To ensure our eKey holders limit the use of Single Access to authorized persons, the MLS Rules include the following:
Section 18.12.a. Supra’s Managed Access is available to any Participant or Subscriber Keyholder (i.e., listing agent) to provide access to the Keyholder’s keybox, provided the person to whom access is granted is the property owner or:
i. Holds an active real estate or appraiser license in the state where the property is located; and
ii. Is not an MLS Participant or Subscriber in this MLS or any MLS with whom Greater Chattanooga REALTORS® has e-Key reciprocity.
When granting Managed Access, Keyholder shall enter in the Supra system the name and contact information of the real person to whom access is being granted. Failure to abide by this Section 18.12.a. shall result in a:
i. Five hundred dollars ($500) for the first offense:
ii. Seven hundred and fifty dollars ($750) for the second offense; and
iii. One thousand dollars ($1,000) for the third offense.
For any fourth or more violation, the offender shall appear before the MLS Committee for consideration of discipline to be imposed. Said discipline shall be limited to those outlined in Section 7 of hte MLS Rules.

I See Dead People & They Want to Sell Real Estate class will be held IN PERSON.
This course is designed for real estate agents to assist them in navigating real estate transactions involving deceased sellers and probate.
In the real estate world, we see so many real estate transactions where the seller is deceased or the real estate is included in a probate. Unfortunately, these types of situations often result in the closing being delayed or the contract possibly terminating. As an attorney owned title company, Burns, Henry & Kirksey, is committed to assisting real estate agents in understanding what information they need to navigate these types of closings and helping them successfully close.
In this presentation, Attorneys Travis Henry and Bryce Kirksey identify three key questions that realtors should ask when taking a listing where a seller is deceased.
These questions and topics include:
-
Who has authority to sign a contract or deed when someone is deceased?
-
