“Your course, in particular the Consumer Protection Reader portion, is profoundly relevant and helpful for practicing day to day! It is truly the best content and style I have ever seen for helping agents have an overview of what they need to know to be a helpful and efficient to our clients. I think it should be mandatory reading for any agent, especially as a new agent license requirement.”

Our 30-hour Consumer Protection Reader has two
parts. First is “Defensive Real Estate” –
its text covers the first 60 pages of this course's 300-page textbook.
It
is an extension of our three-hour Risk Management course and, as
such, provides additional tips on how to avoid disputes and litigation
with your clients.
The second part is “Consumer Protection Articles.”
It contains nearly 150 articles drawn from two sources: (1) the DRE’s
Real Estate Bulletin and (2)
RealtyTimes.com. Taken together, the articles give you a
thorough accounting of changes affecting California real estate
brokerage during the preceding four years (the book is updated
annually). Areas covered include law, taxes, industry, financing,
mortgages, settlement, risk management, and home ownership. Click

including its table of contents.

IMPORTANT:
The DRE requires
you to wait four
days after paid registration before taking any final
exam; and the DRE limits the number of course-hours you may
complete to 15-hours in any 24-hour period. Therefore, the
minimum number of days needed to pass all courses is a little
over six. For a
detailed explanation of how you may pass all courses in six days, click
here.
We
guarantee the DRE will accept the continuing education
credits you earn providing you complete the course
within six months after your paid registration. |
|
 |
After you pass your exams, we provide a
"certificate". It lists the DRE-assigned "certificate number"
for each course. You will enter these six
numbers when prompted by DRE's license renewal site (eLicensing).
We provide renewal instructions and a link to DRE's renewal
site once you have completed all courses. |
