Tax Favorable Real Estate Transactions
This course discusses the application of current tax advantages of using both qualified and non-qualified tax products such as IRAs, SEP IRA, 401k, Roth IRAs and charitable gift annuities. The use of these applications will provide the real estate professional with the opportunity to create a long standing and profitable relationship with his or her clients, as well as attracting a more sophisticated investor wishing to find an alternative to 1031 exchanges.

1031 Real Estate Exchanges
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code allows for a tax deferment on the exchange of "like kind" income-producing property. In essence, an individual may trade an old income-producing or commercial capital asset for a new one of "like kind" without paying tax on any of the gains. Instead, the tax is deferred until the chain of exchanges is permanently broken.
Commercial real property can qualify for a tax-deferred exchange, providing that the transaction is properly managed through the cooperation of many different professionals. This module outlines the uses of 1031 exchanges, covering what constitutes exchangeable property, the definition of "like kind," the roles of different professionals in 1031 exchanges, the benefits and drawbacks, as well as the different types of exchanges commonly used for real estate transactions.
A real estate professional familiar with the Section 1031, its meaning, use and scope, will be able to expand his or her clientele base and will be better equipped to advise investor and commercial clients over the course of their transactions, from the property finding phase through closing.

ERC Relocation: Assisting Corporate Transferees
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Relocation presents an array of new challenges and opportunities to all real estate professionals. This course covers the definition of “relocation” and the development of the relocation industry. We explain how relocation affects the roles of various real estate professionals, including appraisers, home inspectors and real estate salespersons, and brokers.
We walk the student through a relocation transaction, covering the assignment, or re-assignment, of an employee through the selling of the employee’s home. Some of the steps in this process require specific explanation. This course covers those points in specific lessons; for example, we devote one lesson to how different companies manage relocation and the types of programs that they commonly institute. The latter half of this course addresses how relocation affects common real estate concerns. These concerns include disclosure law, agency, tax law, fair housing, and non-discrimination issues.
Upon completion of this course, the student will:
- Understand the definition and development of the relocation business.
- Appreciate the impact relocation has had on the professional roles of those persons traditionally associated with the real estate industry.
- Grasp the various steps in the relocation process.
- Recognize the various steps that comprise a relocation transaction.
- Understand the different types of relocation plans and programs.
- Recognize fair housing legislation as it relates to relocation.
- Know how to avoid unfair discrimination.
- Recognize the various protected classes under federal fair housing legislation.
- Comprehend the importance of agency and property disclosure.

Environmental Hazards
Approval Code: 38489
This course is designed to increase your knowledge about expanding environmental issues and laws that have an impact on environmental problems. This course Identifies the procedures used to locate toxic waste sites, the responsibilities for clean up and steps that may be taken to minimize future liabilities.
While real estate agents are not expected to be environmental experts, the same disclosure rules apply as to other facts about a property. That is, if environmental information is known to the sales agent and it would affect a prudent purchaser's decision to buy, it must be disclosed. Because of this, licensees should be familiar with the nature of these problems as well as the laws and regulations that are intended to protect both the consumer and the environment.
