Real Estate Contracts: Essentials and Beyond – Course Description
Real Estate Contracts: Essentials and Beyond is a practical course that helps agents and brokers truly understand what they’re asking clients to sign—and what they’re agreeing to themselves. This course walks through the key parts of listing agreements, buyer representation agreements, purchase and sale contracts, addenda, contingencies, and common special clauses, explaining what they mean in plain language.
Through real-world examples, you’ll see how deadlines, financing terms, inspection clauses, repair requests, and title issues can make or break a deal, and how clear drafting and communication can prevent confusion and disputes. You’ll also learn how to spot red flags, handle counteroffers and multiple-offer situations, and know when to advise clients to seek legal counsel. By the end of this course, you’ll feel more confident writing, explaining, and managing real estate contracts from start to finish—protecting your clients, your brokerage, and your license.
