Send a link to a friend

[December 08, 2009]  Doris E. Oltmanns and Cynthia K. Pagel have returned to their Lincoln real estate office after attending a course of advanced education for professional real estate agents. Oltmanns and Pagel are agents with Doris & Associates in Lincoln. They participated in the Graduate Realtors Institute of Illinois on Dec. 2 and 3 at the Doubletree Hotel and Conference Center in Bloomington. They completed the institute's graduate course, which examines specialized areas of real estate practice.

Legal issues, tax updates and new technology were just a few of the subjects discussed. Real estate agents need to stay abreast of new laws and new technology, and attending the institute is an important learning experience.

The institute is conducted each year by the Illinois Association of Realtors for the benefit of its 50,000 members. Attendance is voluntary, and successful completion of the three undergraduate courses leads to the professional designation of GRI, indicating a graduate of the Graduate Realtors Institute of Illinois. Each of the courses covers different aspects of the real estate industry and goes into more detail than is required by the state of Illinois' real estate licensing law. Graduate courses cover specialized areas of the real estate industry.

Institute courses include advanced material about such subjects as contract law, professional standards, sales and marketing, auctions, license law, and escrow.

Institute faculty members come from across the nation. Each is a recognized authority in the practice of real estate, financing and law, as well as being an experienced instructor.
