Will we see a rise in short sales and foreclosures again? Many experts predict a wave of evictions and foreclosures that could lead to a drop in equity and an increase in seller's needing a short sale. The purpose of this course is to give students a deep knowledge about the short sale process, the foreclosure process and step by step training on the logistics of achieving a successful short sale for their real estate clients. The class provides instructions on how to connect clients with the correct advice needed to achieve the best outcome in the event that they find themselves in default under their current loan.

WHY: Taxes ​are ​a ​reality ​and ​it ​is ​often ​said ​it ​isn't ​about ​what ​you ​make, ​but ​about ​what ​you ​keep.

Knowing ​the ​questions ​to ​ask ​the ​tax ​professionals ​can ​make ​a ​huge ​difference ​in ​the ​tax ​dollars ​paid ​versus ​tax ​dollars ​saved. Most ​real ​estate ​licensees ​are ​independent ​contractors, ​a ​status ​that ​is ​ultimately ​determined by ​the ​IRS. ​Licensees ​need ​to ​be ​aware ​of ​the ​benefits ​and ​pitfalls ​of ​independent ​contractor ​status- ​especially ​as ​they ​apply ​to ​taxation. ​Client's ​need ​to ​be ​made ​aware ​of ​the ​tax ​implications ​as ​they ​relate ​to ​a ​transaction.

This ​course ​discusses ​taxes ​related ​to ​a ​real ​estate ​licensee's ​business ​and ​how ​this ​interacts ​with ​the ​clients ​transaction. ​The ​purpose ​of ​this ​course ​is ​to ​make ​licensees ​aware ​of ​the ​parts ​of ​the ​tax ​code ​that ​affect ​the ​licensee's ​business ​and ​the ​interaction ​with ​client ​and ​customer ​relations.

GRI ​REQUIREMENTS: - ​Be ​a ​Colorado ​REALTOR ​in ​good ​​standing - ​Complete ​Coursework ​- ​The ​GRI ​program ​consists ​of ​15 ​courses, ​each ​providing ​Al ​ ​4 ​hours ​of ​credit, ​for ​a ​total ​of ​60 ​hours ​of ​education. ​ ​Courses ​may ​be ​taken ​online, ​in ​the ​classroom ​from ​a ​sponsoring ​REALTOR ​association, ​or ​a ​combination ​of ​online ​and ​classroom. ​ ​All ​60 ​hours ​of ​education ​toward ​the ​GRI ​designation ​must ​be ​completed ​within ​3 ​years.

One of the most common goals of a property investor is to build a large portfolio and generate passive income for retirement. While we hear this goal a lot, very few investors actually achieve this goal, and many end up never even buying their first property. This presentation will show you 4 different ways to acquire properties and give you a step-by-step business plan that you can use to purchase and build your portfolio. We’ll walk you through this business plan to show you how to start from scratch and build up a portfolio of 10 properties so you can retire.

This class comes with 1 free CE Credit.

Clients always ask “how’s the market?” This class gives you specific talking points to sound like an expert. We also discuss how you can use the information for listing presentations, and for buyers that aren’t sure if “now is the time to trade up” or if they should wait until later.

This class comes with 1 free CE Credit.

Attorney Bruce Peotter will be discussing the top ten reasons to have a living trust.

Some key questions that will be answered are:

- Does it matter who dies first?
- Who will take care of you when you can't do it yourself?
- Do we need to avoid probate?
- How can you keep the government out of your affairs?
- Who will be the guardian of your minor children if you die?

In this HOT market listing agents get hammered with multiple offers and demands of buyer brokers. This class covers the most significant challenges of navigating multiple offers and best practices for managing them. If you’ve attended Greg Parham’s Techniques for Better Contract Offers class, this is the flip side for listing brokers.

In this class Greg will cover:

- Appraisal waivers (why the poorly written ones are so dangerous and what makes a good one).
- Whether or not to disclose other offer prices.
- Whether or not to set a contract review (acceptance) date in the MLS remarks– and recommended language if doing that.
- Dealing with inspection waivers (and how NOT to write them).
- How to counter escalation clauses effectively AND reasons why you shouldn’t discourage them in your MLS remarks.
- The proper way to counter an offer with additional provisions to eliminate any confusion on terms or dates.

Covid-19 seems to breed contract contingencies like rabbits. Some contingencies:

· Were great at the beginning of the pandemic, but are not so good now
· Fit one buyer, but not another
· Work for a buyer but not the seller
· Fit the seller’s needs but not the buyer’s
· Are more complicated than just using the blanks in the State contract to achieve the same goal.

Learn how to:
1. Identify situations where additional provisions and addenda help your client and avoid situations where they hurt.
2. Evaluate language other brokers present to you.
3. Choose or draft your own additional provisions.

WHY: The Code of Ethics is a measure of professionalism in real estate. It does not describe the lowest common denominator of permissible performance, which many licensing laws do; the Code describes the optimum performance the public has the right to expect and imposes an obligation not only to adhere to high standards of ethical conduct, but also for REALTOR® members to become and remain informed, knowledgeable and competent.

The ethical considerations relating to the new role of transaction broker, and for buyer agents, have mandated changes in the NAR Code of Ethics. Since 1995, the National Association of REALTORS® has continued to revise and expand the Code of Ethics. Every REALTOR® is required to complete minimum Ethics training every four years as mandated by NAR.

Learning Objectives:

- Identify at least two aspirational concepts in the Preamble to the Code of Ethics, describe the concept of general business ethics and identify how the Code of Ethics compares and contrasts with the concept of general business ethics.
- Describe the concepts of at least two of the following Articles of the Code of Ethics: Articles 1, 2, 3, 9, 11, 12, 16 and 17.
- Given interactive learning methods such as case studies, quizzes, role play, group discussion of fact scenarios, identify possible violations of the Code of Ethics, specifically related to at least one of the two Articles selected in Objective #2.
- Briefly describe the professional standards enforcement process of the board or association.

WHY: Business planning is one of the least practiced aspects of the real estate business, and yet one of the most important. The average new licensee does not think about a business plan or the goals needed for a business plan. Why? Because they never had to in their previous career or they simply did not think they were a “business.”

A business plan is a working tool, identifying and defining business goals and outlining methods of achieving them. It is a detailed description of exactly how a real estate licensee or broker intends to create and operate their business. The business plan is based on research of the industry and an analysis of personal and business income and expenses.

Learning Objectives:

- Prepare clear, concise, and attainable written goals. Differentiate between goal gross income and goal net income.
- Specify which activities they should do and how often in order to achieve their goals.
- Illustrate the importance of a business plan.
- Develop a basic business plan using at least three business plan elements.
- Complete a sample income statement using a case study.
- Complete a sample balance sheet using a case study.
- Complete a sample cash flow statement using a case study.
- Prepare financial and statistical information for use in goal-setting and business planning.
