SALESPERSON PRE-EXAM COURSE

The 48 Hour Pre-examination Course is designed to prepare students for the State and National Exam. The curriculum includes ownership of property, freehold and leasehold estates, legal description, property management, discrimination, agency relationships, valuation (appraisal) of property, financing, Missouri License Laws and Rules, along with real estate math and closings.

MISSOURI REAL ESTATE PRACTICE COURSE

The 24 Hour Missouri Real Estate Practice Pre-Licensure Course features the actual day-to-day activities and practice of a real estate licensee. The major topics include applying value to property, working through a "practice" real estate transaction from start to finish - including filling out a listing, completing a real estate contract, a counter-offer, and applying the necessary information to the closing documents. In addition, students will learn how to pre-qualify buyers and become familiar with various financing possibilities. Quality of construction and various home styles will also be addressed.

ADDITIONAL TUTORING OPTIONS

Although our instructors have limited time allotted, pre-scheduled tutoring sessions are available for the serious student. In addition, one day a month, there is a day allocated for testing and exam preparation. See schedule for Real Estate Exam Review.

1. Hold a current and active Missouri salesperson license for at least 24 of the last 30 months immediately preceding the application for license.

2. Earn a Certificate of Satisfactory Completion from a 48-hour pre-exam broker course by an accredited Missouri real estate school on or before the exam date.

BROKER PRE-EXAM COURSE

The 48 Hour Broker Pre-examination Course is designed to prepare students for the State and National Broker Exam. Since brokers require a greater knowledge base, instruction will be directed toward assimilation-type questions and discussion, as well as focusing on the responsibility involved in making judgment calls and critical decisions. The curriculum includes ownership of property, freehold and leasehold estates, legal description, responsibilities in managing property - including personal, management agreements, escrow accounts and discrimination. The student will also be exposed to brokerage and agency, financing, valuation (appraisal) of property, Missouri License Laws and Rules relating to brokerage, real estate math, and closing statements.

REAL ESTATE CONTINUING EDUCATION

Each real estate licensee who holds an active license shall complete during the two (2)-year period prior to renewal, as a condition precedent to license renewal, a minimum of twelve (12) hours of real estate instruction approved for continuing education credit by the Missouri Real Estate Commission. An active license is any license issued by the commission except those which have been placed on inactive status.

At least three (3) of the twelve (12) hours of approved instruction shall be taken in a course identified by the Missouri Real Estate Commission as a core class. The balance of the twelve (12) hours of instruction shall consist of elective courses which have been approved for continuing education credit by the Missouri Real Estate Commission.

APPRAISAL CONTINUING EDUCATION

Every appraiser must complete fourteen classroom hours of instruction in courses or seminars for each year during the period preceding the appraiser's renewal year. For example, a two-year continuing education term would require twenty-eight hours.

The purpose of continuing education is to ensure that the appraiser participates in a program that maintains and increases his/her skill, knowledge and competency in real estate appraising. Continuing education hours may be obtained anytime during the term.

Appraisers must successfully complete the seven-hour National USPAP Update Course, or its equivalent, at a minimum of every two years.
