Many California homeowners feel locked into co-ownership with a sibling, an ex-partner, or a co-investor who doesn’t want to sell. You might guess that many of these people are turned away by agents who don’t know how to help them, leaving money on the table. What’s more, co-ownership arrangements like these are on the rise! More couples are choosing to buy homes together without being married. It’s essential to have a clear understanding of the partition action process, and the liberation it offers in today’s real estate market.

The Presentation will discuss the relatively straightforward Partition process, where one party wants to sell and the other does not. This does not relate to lot splits. Instead, it has much more relevance to today’s residential and commercial real estate industry, which can help you sell more houses.

This course offers a comprehensive, high-level perspective on the real estate industry. One that goes well beyond what standard licensure programs are designed to provide. While licensing education equips you to pass the exam, it was never intended to prepare you for the full reality of building a thriving career. That is precisely the gap this course was created to address. Developed from nearly three decades of hands-on industry experience, this course exists because we recognized that even the most motivated new agents often enter the field without a clear picture of how everything fits together.

There are many future classes that help you with the “nuts and bolts” of the details, but we believe this is the missing link to help you and others, who are either newly licensed or considering getting into real estate, understand an overview. This program was thoughtfully designed to help professionals transition from full-time employment into real estate at a manageable, sustainable pace. Whether you are newly licensed or still weighing up your decision to enter the industry, you are in the right place. Our goal is to help you begin your highly successful and long, exciting career.
