DESCRIPTION
Great Choice Mortgage Program (THDA) class will be held IN PERSON.
REALTORS®: DO YOU WANT MORE CLOSINGS?
Learn how to help your buyers overcome a major barrier by giv-ing them an option to use down payment assistance. Become a hero to first-time homebuyers by saying yes when others have told them no. Learn the ins and outs of THDA’s Great Choice program and make more deals work because you understand the rules and exceptions. Finally, by taking this 4-hour class you will earn the pre-ferred THDA Realtor status for three years!
Join us and learn the answers to the following questions about THDA mortgages:
-
How can a veteran get a reduced interest rate on his/her mortgage loan?
-
Does a veteran have to be a first-time homebuyer to obtain a THDA mortgage?
-
How can a loan provide a free 6-month interest rate lock…while home is being constructed?
-
How can a buyer get funds to pay for closing costs if the seller doesn’t pay?
-
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.

Most real estate professionals only deal in the present. They focus exclusively on current conditions and how a property looks right now. However, to be successful in real estate you need to understand not just the present but also the future.
Understanding planning and zoning for all areas in which you work is critical to the success of your real estate transactions. Your knowledge of these concepts will help you advise clients about whether a property is a good value, whether it is likely to appreciate, whether it is appropriate for their goals now, what development is proposed around a property for the future, and whether their proposed use fits in with future growth.
You'll help empower your business with a greater understanding of which places might present strong opportunities for clients now and which might present better opportunities in the future.

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.
