Florida Real Estate Postlicensing for Sales Associates: 1st Edition

Florida Real Estate Postlicensing for Sales Associates (FREPSA) is 45-hour review and applied principles coursebook for newly-licensed sales associates beginning their real estate careers in Florida. It is designed to satisfy your one-time postlicense requirement as a sales associate actively practicing real estate in Florida. FREPSA is used with approved sales associate postlicensing courses throughout Florida.

There are three principal themes underlying the content of our FREPSA course. First is to give you a key-point review of the most critical laws and regulations impacting your current practice: license-related regulations, brokerage relationships review, disclosures and professional practices that form the foundations of professional practice. This review additionally includes a brief review of rules and regulations framing compliant practices in advertising, fair housing and brokerage operations.

Second, we wanted to give you a deeper exposure to more advanced, transaction-related brokerage practices that are critical to becoming a successful practitioner: market analysis; pricing; investment principles, construction knowledge, obtaining and marketing listings, and managing the pre-closing period.

Finally, we wanted to present several additional perspectives on real estate practice that can add valuable new dimensions to your future engagements in real estate practice: property management, real estate-related insurance, and risk management. And, for students who appreciate a brush-up in real estate math, we cap off the program with a comprehensive review of transaction-related math formulas and calculations.
