In California, real estate transactions can be tricky. The contracts, the compliance, the constant changes—it’s enough to make your head spin. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Relaxed Agent’s tailored training sessions give brokerages and teams the skills to stay ahead of the curve. We go beyond just filling in forms—we teach the strategy behind every clause, disclosure, and contingency. Because knowing the rules is one thing, but understanding how to play the game? That’s where the magic happens.
What Our Training Sessions Cover
Mastering the Buyer Representation and Broker Compensation Agreement (C.A.R. Form BRBC)
Don’t let compensation disputes catch you off guard. We break down how to use the BRBC to secure your commission, protect your earnings, and establish clear terms with clients from day one. Agents leave this session knowing how to lock down their compensation without the headaches.
Structuring a Competitive Offer
Winning offers in California’s high-stakes market require more than just good timing. We go over every component—earnest money deposits, contingency periods, and negotiation tactics—so your agents can craft offers that stand out and protect their clients’ interests.
Importance of Upfront Disclosures
Transparency isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s essential. We emphasize the value of having all disclosures (like the TDS and SPQ) completed upfront to avoid potential pitfalls. Your agents will learn how to discuss disclosures with clients and the opposing side confidently, preventing delays and misunderstandings from the start.
Protecting Your Buyer’s Earnest Money
Understanding how to safeguard a buyer’s earnest money is a must. From critical contingencies to contractual language, we make sure your agents are equipped to guide buyers through these terms and avoid disputes that could cost them money—and trust.
Completing Your AVID (Agent Visual Inspection Disclosure)
The AVID isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a crucial form that can shield agents and brokerages from liability. We train agents on how to conduct a thorough visual inspection, document findings accurately, and submit their AVID within the first 5 days of a transaction to stay in compliance and out of trouble.
Navigating the Real Estate Contract
Contracts shouldn’t be intimidating, but it’s easy to get lost in the legal jargon. We dive deep into each section of the C.A.R. Residential Purchase Agreement (RPA), breaking down clauses, contingencies, and conditions so agents can identify potential red flags, address them early, and explain complex terms to clients in a way that actually makes sense.
Technology Mastery for a Seamless Transaction
There’s a tool for everything these days—if you know how to use it. We help your agents master platforms like DocuSign (for quick, compliant e-signatures), Skyslope and Dotloop (for document management and compliance tracking), and Brokermint or Paperless Pipeline (for streamlined transaction management). We also cover broker platforms like Intelliagent and Backagent, so no one’s left guessing. Your team will come out tech-savvy, able to navigate transactions like pros, and equipped to close deals faster.
