The 4-hour CE Elective course is a great risk management learning system for real estate brokers because it allows brokers to learn from the trials of fellow N.C. brokers. This course incorporates a lot of discussion and thinking, as well as negotiations with fellow classmates to determine what each [of you] think the N.C. court said.
​Each case in this course is based upon a recent N.C. Court of Appeals decision involving a real estate transaction.

Forewarn Training via Zoom

The FOREWARN application gives an agent the ability to safely verify prospects (while not being exposed to any protected class information) with instant insight (within seconds) on a prospective client using only a phone number! Don’t have a phone number… you can also search by name.
Instantly verify:

Identity (first name, last name, alias, and age)
Phone numbers (residential and mobile history)
Address history (rental, ownership, and associated addresses)
Financial indicators (bankruptcy, lien, judgement, and foreclosure history)
Property records (nationwide property ownership history)
Criminal records (nationwide criminal history search)

Verifying unknown prospects in FOREWARN is not only critical for your agents’ personal safety and efficiency, but also for potential fraud detection and prevention.
