PLAW-204: Real Estate Law is an online paralegal course designed to give students a comprehensive foundation in property law and real estate transactions. Using Practical Real Estate Law by Daniel F. Hinkel, this course examines property ownership, concurrent ownership, surveys, land descriptions, and the restrictions that impact land use. Students will also explore easements, encumbrances, and licensing issues that shape real estate rights.
Emphasis is placed on the preparation and review of legal documents commonly used in real estate practice, including contracts, deeds, mortgages, financing documents, leases, and closing forms. The course further addresses title examinations, title insurance, condominiums, and cooperatives, helping students understand both the theoretical and practical sides of real estate law.
By combining legal principles with applied skills, students will gain the ability to analyze property law issues, support closings, and manage documentation for real estate transactions. This paralegal course prepares learners for careers in law firms, title companies, real estate agencies, or property management, where knowledge of real estate law and strong document review skills are essential.
