Risk Reduction for Brokers and Agents

Risk is an unavoidable part of real estate, but understanding where it lurks—and how to mitigate it—can protect both agents and their clients. This course provides a comprehensive roadmap for identifying and managing risk in three critical areas: seller property disclosures, active transactions, and failed transactions. Participants will gain a deep understanding of Pennsylvania’s seller disclosure law, agency and dual agency obligations, and common contractual pitfalls. Through case law examples and state-specific regulations, agents will learn how to navigate termination scenarios, minimize liability in failed transactions, and implement proactive risk-reduction strategies to ensure smoother, more secure deals.
