Colorado Real Estate License School Online 

This Welcome! Colorado Real Estate Course Orientation gives you an understanding of what to expect in the course package, enables you to prepare for the exam and offers you helpful study tips.

This course covers the topics required by the Real Estate Commission for the introductory course covering the Principles, Law and Practice of Real Estate. This includes information covering the national or general portion of the pre-licensing coursework. Topics included cover those areas which are common to all states, as well as general math concepts.

You will learn basic real estate principles and begin your introduction to real estate law, the important aspects of real estate licensing requirements, distinctions between personal and real property, titles to, and conveyance of real estate, federal, state, and local fair housing laws. The course will also review key licensing laws and obligations as well as legal descriptions, important elements of real estate contracts, how various interests in real estate are defined, including deeds, encumbrances and liens, how titles to real estate are held and conveyed, and the ethical standards you are expected to meet as a license holder.

All students are emailed a link to a digital version of the Modern Real Estate Practice book from Vitalsource. Please check your spam/ junk folder for the email and log in instructions. You are required to complete the reading assignments, see the attached document of chapters to read below, as well as quizzes, exams and exercises. This will be the only reference of reading assignments, so it is advised to save this pdf to your computer and use as you progress through the course.

Please reference the Supplemental Reading Assignment for this course.

The main purpose of this course is to inform learners of the License Law, Regulations, and Relationships that are available under the law in Colorado, before presenting the contracts and forms that are required for use in most real estate transactions. 

This course covers the basic skills necessary to properly close a real estate transaction, including responsibilities from the contract through and after the closing, plus accounting for all funds received and disbursed, as well as a comprehensive review of the legal documents prepared by the broker.

This course covers the proper record keeping procedures required by the Real Estate Commission to maintain and account for funds belonging to others.

The standards a real estate broker must follow for the handling of the funds which belong to others are rigid. All brokers must follow the same procedures and methodology. Most brokers handling large funds will want to consider proper accounting software or the advice and counsel of a competent accountant.

For those brokers considering becoming employing brokers and/or property managers, the strict adherence to the rules is critical. We open this course with a review of both the Commission Position on Competency and their posting on recordkeeping.

In this course we present actual cases that were undertaken by the Commission. Each case—be it an audit, complaint, or legal case filed against a broker, buyer, or seller—should be reviewed closely. By examining the information presented, students will be able to gain insights into how the Commission functions and what risks licensees face for failing to follow the law or rules.

We recommend you spend the necessary time to properly answer any questions posed in this course, and to carefully review the results, conclusions, and decisions that are outlined here. We begin by looking at actual cases before discussing issues that licensees face each and every day in the field.

The main course objective is to protect the public by providing an overview for new real estate brokers in the application of laws, rules, and standard of practices. It helps provide some guidance to new brokers by discussing the importance of setting up personal goals and a business plan as well as what equipment is necessary and how to go about getting started on marketing. Other practical information such as working with sellers and buyers, showing property, writing an offer, and the closing process are also addressed.

Throughout this course, learners will be informed about market trends, the proper mechanics of practicing real estate, and the basics that will formulate a successful real estate career.
