Why Take this Course?

“But is it illegal?” After practicing law in the real estate arena for nearly 20 years, this is a question that Trista Curzydlo has heard a lot. This course takes a look at situations that real estate agents face and delineates between what’s illegal, what’s unethical, and what is just plain rude!  Trista is one of our members’ favorite guest instructors here at GLVR, combining her legal and real estate knowledge with humor to make learning enjoyable and interactive.
