This is a 3-hour elective course that explores the specific provisions of the MAR and GCAAR standard form contracts adopted for use in the Maryland and DC jurisdictions. The course deals with a paragraph-by-paragraph discussion of the MAR and GCAAR contracts by delving into relevant trends, practices, and challenges which licensees contend within the dispensation of their obligations as real estate practitioners. Practical suggestions are offered on how to fill the contract forms in an easy-to-understand manner to ensure the participants’ future protection from liability in the event of a contractual dispute arising out of a contract situation. This is not a mandatory course, but it offers licensees an alternative in meeting up with the 15-hour Continuing Education requirement for renewal.
