Brief Course Description

This course is designed to give the licensee a comprehensive understanding of California law relating to the handling of client trust funds. The concept of trust funds is discussed along with the rules and regulations relating to the handling of such trust funds. Specific attention is focused on the trust fund account and the liability associated with managing the account.

Particular attention is placed on trust fund violations relating to commingling and trust fund conversion. A detailed discussion of the various types of permitted trust fund accounting records is presented along with suggested good record keeping procedures.

Since the majority of California Department of Real Estate (DRE) audit violations relate to trust funds, a great deal of attention is focused on the DRE audit and the possible penalties for violation of the California Real Estate Law and the Commissioner's Regulations relating to trust funds.

Finally, the student is presented with a series of trust fund transactions in the form of a case study. The case study outlines the various steps in properly recording the trust fund transactions and demonstrates how the transactions are entered on DRE columnar system forms. Once a student has completed this course, a working knowledge of trust fund handling and record keeping requirements will assist the student in staying in compliance with the California trust funds laws.

This course has no prerequisites.

Brief Course Description

Home buyers, states, and governments have all begun to push harder and harder for environmentalism, sustainability, and renewability; particularly in housing where nearly 40% of electricity is used. There are a large number of tools, methods, and strategies that can be used to meet this demand for sustainability, and many scholars believe that the most important step is ensuring real estate professionals can convey the benefits and importance of sustainability in housing. This course will describe why “going Green” matters, the different kinds of green certification labels, what a green label can do for a home, the basic descriptions and benefits of a handful of green improvements, what the costs and benefits of green certified housing are, and what resources both the licensee and their customers can use to dive deeper into the world of sustainable housing and real estate.

Brief Course Description

In 2021, the California legislation passed a requirement for all real estate licenses to participate in a Fair Housing course that covers state and federal fair housing regulations. Besides explaining fair housing laws relating to the sale and rental of real estate, the course is required to include an interactive participatory component where the licensee shall role play as both a consumer and real estate professional.

This course will describe selected federal and state civil rights and antidiscrimination laws relating to real property transactions and business establishments. We'll cover the historical impact of fair housing regulations on minority members of our community, describe the primary laws regulating licensee conduct and real estate transactions, and review relevant subtopics including redlining, advertising, refusing to show property, and block busting. We'll also offer practical tips that can help all real estate professionals comply with fair housing laws.

Throughout the course you will be presented with scenarios that place the reader in the role of a consumer of real estate or in the role of a real estate professional. Several responses to the story will be presented. These scenarios are NOT graded activities; their purpose is for the reader to recognize everyday practices and experiences that they may not have considered to be discriminatory.

This course has no prerequisites.

Brief Course Description

The course emphasizes that the standards of ethical conduct in the practice of real estate are based upon the National Association of REALTORS® Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice and upon federal and state laws governing conduct applicable to the practice of real estate. The concept of misrepresentation and all of its implications to the daily practice of real estate is discussed in detail. This course is an article-by-article dissection of the Code of Ethics, organized in three major topic areas:

1. The licensee's ethical conduct with respect to clients and customers
2. The licensee's duty to the public
3. The licensee's duties to fellow REALTORS®.

A detailed discussion of specific ethical conduct under each of these three general categories will give the licensee an excellent basis upon which to conduct an ethical practice of real estate.

NAR members are required to complete 2.5 hours of Ethics training every three years. This course qualifies towards your good membership standing with NAR. NAR members must now take an ethics course or training equivalency from a local, state, or national REALTOR® association to receive credit towards their Code of Ethics training requirement.
