Real estate professionals have a responsibility to know and understand the applicable fair housing and civil rights laws governing their workplace as well as their personal conduct. The public expects and deserves competent actions based upon thorough knowledge. However, federal definitions of "protected classes" expand and change. As licensees learn about and review protected classes and fair housing laws throughout this course, they will become better equipped to act with honesty, competence, and intelligence in serving their clients and customers.

In Breaking Barriers in Fair Housing, we discuss the protections provided by the Fair Housing Act, and how licensees can best protect clients and their firms from discrimination.

New York real estate licensees must complete 22.5 hours of continuing education which must include at minimum 3 hours of instruction pertaining to Fair Housing and/or discrimination. Our 3.5 hours Law of the Land Fair Housing course will help your stay in compliance.

It is illegal, pursuant to the Federal Fair Housing Law, 42 U.S.C.A. 3601, to refuse to sell, transfer, assign, rent, lease, sublease or finance housing accommodations, refuse to negotiate for the sale or rental of housing accommodations or otherwise deny or make unavailable housing accommodations because of race, color, religion, sex, familial status as defined in Section 4112.01 of the Revised Code, ancestry disability as defined in that section, or national origin or to so discriminate in advertising the sale or rental of housing, in the financing of housing, or in the provision of real estate brokerage services. It is also illegal, for profit, to induce or attempt to induce a person to sell or rent a dwelling by representations regarding the entry into the neighborhood of a person or persons belonging to one of the protected classes.

This course will aid the New York real estate licensee with a better understanding of the Fair Housing Act and satisfies the DOS mandatory Fair Housing CE instruction requirement.

3 Hours
3.0 Agency Law Hours
A full understanding of Agency relationships and disclosures is not only essential for being a successful real estate professional, it is now a mandatory continuing education requirement for all New York real estate licensees. Our 3-hour Agency Exposed course satisfies the 1 mandatory hour of instruction in the law of agency for second and subsequent license renewal and also the 2-hour mandatory agency requirement for licensees renewing in their initial two-year licensing term. Proper agency disclosure is a vital part of today's real estate world, but that was not always the case. An FTC report published in 1983 led to many changes in real estate agency representation and disclosure requirements for real estate professionals. This course reviews the results of this survey which showed that there was very little understanding and a lot of confusion about whom the real estate licensees were representing in the real estate transactions. All this understandably began to cause concern among the many sectors of the real estate profession. Upon completion of this course, New York real estate licensees will have a better understanding of agency structure and responsibilities, proper agency disclosures, and will be able to identify actions that could constitute a breach of fiduciary duties.

Landlord representatives usually referred to as "leasing agents" or "leasing brokers," serve a key role in commercial real estate: getting tenants for their clients' buildings. Accomplishing that goal is a lengthy, multi-step process that includes positioning the product in the marketplace, identifying suitable prospects, creating and executing marketing plans, negotiating the deal, and managing all of the steps associated with the leasing process. Landlord reps must have their fingers on the pulse of their market. A thorough knowledge of tenant demographics, occupancy rates, leasing rates, and industry trends is essential. Beyond technical expertise, however, they must also be adept at relationship building, and must know how to coalesce the varying needs of tenants, landlords and leasing brokers into workable, win-win-win deals.

This course provides an overview of commercial leasing, the players involved in commercial leasing, their roles and goals.

Real estate licensees who represent commercial clients, whether as buyers or sellers of commercial properties, must understand the process of valuing commercial properties. To best serve their commercial real estate clients, they need a solid understanding of how commercial properties are valued, how appraisers work, and how that important final number is determined.

Many of the tools and methodologies used by commercial appraisers can also be used by licensees to help their clients determine value when buying, selling or comparing commercial real estate. While a valuation prepared by a real estate licensee will never take the place of a formal appraisal, it is important for licensees to understand the definitions of value used by appraisers, the methodologies used, the three approaches to value, and how value of commercial properties is determined. It is also important for licensees to be able to read and extract information from a professional appraisal report.

Highlights of this course include:

• Definitions of commonly used commercial appraisal terms
• An in-depth look at the process of data collection, analysis and three approaches to value (cost, income and sales comparison) for commercial property valuation

Commercial real estate investors have two goals: generate cash flow and produce higher returns. However, unlike other investment types, investing in commercial property is not simply a matter of buying at one price and selling for more.
