A Brief Summary of Some of the Courses We Offer:
Avoiding the Aggravations of Home Inspections
The home inspection is one of the most crucial parts of the home buying process. Offers are finalized or revoked as a result of a home inspector’s report. A home inspection can be a source of anxiety for buyers, sellers, and real estate agents. However, real estate agents can ease some of their clients’ anxieties by helping them to be better educated and prepared for the home inspection process. Many aggravations can be avoided if the real estate agent prepares the buyer and seller before the inspection takes place.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Set expectations for the buyer
- Explain common components of an inspection agreement
- Avoid aggravations by preparing the seller
- Avoid aggravations by preparing the buyer
Going Green: For Real Estate Agents
A home’s energy efficiency has a direct impact on the owner’s wallet. Real estate agents are often asked by client’s questions regarding a home’s energy efficiency, including questions about the home’s heating and cooling system, construction, and appliances. In addition, many people are becoming more aware of how their lifestyle decisions directly affect the environment. This course is designed for real estate agents who want to better advocate for clients that are concerned with a home’s energy efficiency and environmental impact.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Differentiate between ‘green’ and ‘green-washed’ products and services
- Describe the characteristics and benefits of green appliances
- Describe the benefits of green systems that can be installed within a home
- Identify characteristics of green construction
Grow Houses
A grow house is a home that was formerly used to grow marijuana. There are both small and large grow homes ranging from a portion of the home to the entire home dedicated to the growth of marijuana. Grow homes can seemingly “fit in” with other homes but there are certain identifiers to look for. There may be physical impacts to the home that would affect the home inspection, including electrical issues, structural effects and mold.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Define a grow home
- Determine how a grow home operates
- Identify how this will affect the home
- Recognize a grow home
- Prepare for inspection and remediation
Home Energy Options and Audits: For Real Estate Agents
Buying a home is one of the most important decisions in a person’s life. A buyer should have all the information about a home before making the decision to purchase. Information provided by a home energy audit can answer a buyer’s questions regarding the efficiency of the home’s heating system and what can be done to improve a home’s energy efficiency. Real estate agents with a general understanding of home energy efficiency can serve as a better resource for their clients during the home buying process.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify the types of energy systems available in homes.
- Describe types of heating systems.
- Identify common sources of energy inefficiency in homes.
- Create strategies to improve energy efficiency in homes.
