How much education and background do you want your real estate
salesperson to have?
The State of Indiana requires that a real estate
salesperson have only 54 hours of education to handle what is most likely the biggest,
most important financial transaction you will ever make. Is that enough? DO YOU TRUST SOMEONE WITH ONLY 54 HOURS OF EDUCATION TO HANDLE THE
PURCHASE OF YOUR HOME?
Selling or
buying a home in today's market is a complex process. A good agent must know marketing,
financial programs, appraising, the legal implications of contract negotiations, mortgage
information, how to read and interpret title work so you get proper title to the home you
buy or sell, how to navigate the mortgage maze, what to look for at the critical moment of
passing title-the closing and much more. I am an Attorneyand a Broker and my education
includes many more hours of work than is required for a Broker's license. Here are just a
few of the courses required in law:
