DESCRIPTION

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.

DESCRIPTION

The overall purpose of this class is to take away the mystery of preparing Commercial Purchase and Sale Agreements. First, we will review just what a contract is and how it needs to be prepared to be legal and enforceable. Then, we will review Letters of Intent and how and why to use them, we will go over – line by line – the provisions of a Commercial Purchase and Sale Agreement and we will talk about when you should use Exhibits along with your Commercial Contracts. As part of these topics we will discuss in some detail due diligence that should be completed during the feasibility period of a commercial transaction. In this interactive workshop, you will leave with the knowledge to explain the agreement to a customer/client, determine how long due diligence periods should be, and be better able to prepare a solid and binding contract, without practicing law!

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.
