Short Sales Basics 101

This training program for real estate agents focuses on increasing their knowledge of the short sale process, better-arming them with all of the information they will need to learn to explain and complete a short sale, including how to conduct the initial interview with the homeowner; acquire and assemble the seller’s information for the lender(s); review the proper use of C.A.R.® forms, and what to look for in an Accepted Offer. Participants will leave this interactive workshop with a 40-page manual that may be used as a reference guide in the future when working with homeowners and buyers interested in a short sale.

Participants who pass the final exam offered at the end of this course will earn 3 hours of continuing education credit applicable toward DRE license renewal.
