Virginia Broker Management
This course will provide the learner with a guide to what it takes to run a successful real estate firm. Opening a real estate business is not a decision that should be taken lightly. A real estate salesperson understands the real estate market, how to list and sell, and how to take care of customers and clients. These skills will be invaluable in running one’s own company. There will be many problems that will arise that require knowledge of the workings of the real estate market. This knowledge of the real estate market alone will not be enough to be successful in running a real estate company. Additional skills are required for and in preparation of opening day. This course will show the learner how to prepare for that day.
Real Estate Ethics and NAR Code of Ethics

We’ll also be looking at what to do when reinstatement is required and what could trigger disciplinary action.
Virginia Agency Relationships
The undertaking of real estate transactions is a complex endeavor. Expertise is needed by buyers and sellers of real property in order to assure that profits are maximized while losses are minimized, both of these ends being realized in legal and ethical ways. To gain this expertise, it is common, if not necessary, for buyers and sellers to enter into relationships with those who have expertise in real property issues—namely, you.
Contracts, Purchases and Sales Agreement
Agreement is an essential component in the legal transference of ownership. In real estate, contracts are the instruments by which agreements are reached for the conveyance of property. Whether a salesperson is promising to sell a property within a specified period of time, a prospective buyer is placing an offer on a house or a seller is considering an offer on property, some type of contract is involved. In this Contracts course, the student learns about the types of general contracts as well as the different kinds of real estate contracts.
Limited Service Agency
This course covers a broad range of issues related to limited-service brokerages to help you learn ways to help clients through this sometimes-complicated process.
