Agency Relationships in Washington State

with Anne Hartman

This law has been in effect since 1996, affects every real estate licensee in the State of Washington, and just made a crucial change in how licensees practice. Real estate agents need to be aware of what they must do and what they can’t do. This course will discuss what an agent is, how to create and terminate an agency relationship and the basic duties a licensee has regardless of what they call themselves. It will also go over some lawsuits that affect licensee duties; Department of licensing suspensions and revocations and discuss some of the typical scenarios that licensees deal with.  Anne brings over 30 years of experience and stories, has been through a lot of the changes, and her frustration with the lack of professionalism in the industry makes this class her passion!

Save my seat!
