This module seeks to make participants aware of valuable resources affecting the daily life of a modern real estate and to make licensees aware of parts of the tax code that affect the licensee’s business.

Most real estate licensees are independent contractors, a status that is ultimately determined by the IRS. Licensees need to be aware of the benefits and pitfalls of independent contractor status—especially as they apply to taxation.  Real estate licensees have also invested a great deal of time and millions of dollars building and improving real estate technology; the demand for additional technology is very high. Internet marketing consultants warn that without proper marketing and promotion, web sites can quickly become obsolete, and, while social networks can help connect in a referral business, society now relies on instant communication.
