Course Description
This course will cover the nuances that renting residential property poses to the real estate licensee.  Students will learn how the same license law issues that apply to sales also apply to rentals and the specific instances where they may find themselves in similar, yet different situations.  Leasing Agent license rules will also be addressed.  Special focus will be spent on Fair Housing since the majority of violations stem from rental property.  Use of credit reports and other consumer reports will also be addressed.  Fair housing issues include tenant screening, use of credit & criminal background reports, assistance animals, reasonable accommodations, advertising and other hot rental topics.  Escrow issues, security deposit laws and disclosure laws are also discussed.
