Elective: Tiny Houses, ADUs, and Other Pint-Sized Living Spaces
Elective: The Unease about Brokerage Fees: How to handle questions about your compensation
Elective: 30 Websites that Brokers and Consumers Should Know (or Know Better)
Tiny homes have been around North American for a long time, but it was the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent recession that sparked renewed interest in tiny houses as an affordable housing solution. . While the brokerage community at large has not invested significant educational resources into the subject of tiny homes, consumers and even brokers are motivated to learn more. The recent trend to add accessory dwelling units (ADUs) to existing properties is yet another area of interest. This course is an effort to meet consumer and broker need to acquire information about tiny home basics.

Ever since the Internet arrived in our home around 1999, I have been honing my skills to find great resources for my hobby but also for my professional interests, including real estate brokerage and education.
The Internet and the World Wide Web are robust sources of information, but it can be very challenging to find those resources.
We will visit Chat GBT and also those resources that are freely available on subjects such as property locational attributes, taxes, environmental and tax matters, lending, material facts, licensing, and more.

I receive a lot of email and phone inquiries from brokers asking about how they can legally receive referral fees (or rebates or discounts) when they want to purchase or sell properties in markets outside their jurisdiction.
Brokers also ask, "Can I get referral fees when I return? Do I have to join an MLS or belong to an association of Realtors?" And "What if my buyers or seller decide at the last minute that they are going to break their contracts? Am I still owed a commission?" "What if my clients default on a sales contract? Can I still get paid."
I'll answer these questions...and more.
