Course Description
Need a review of the 1- 4 Family Contract? This course takes you through the whole shebang. We’ll cover paragraphs that require disclosure to protect buyers and sellers in a transaction. For example, Paragraph 2 details what items need to stay with the dwelling (or are exclusions), and Paragraph 4 defines what leases may apply. (*note: Solar panels can cause lots of headaches in a transaction.)
By the end of the course, you’ll know exactly what information you need to fill out the form. You’ll find out how to get help from lenders when completing Paragraph 4 and the relevant addenda. And you’ll learn how Paragraph 9 and 10 can protect consumers when there are leased amenities connected to the property.
