In this Assignment you will become more familiar with the fiduciary duties of the real estate professional as regards clients and potential clients. You will also have the opportunity to practice creating an audio visual presentation which can be important both in the job market and as a marketing tool and a client service skill. Once you learn how to create an audio visual presentation, you can send a link to a client or to a potential employer which allows them to hear your explanation of your visual presentation.

Fiduciary duties (as part of the real estate professional duties) are an essential component in governing your actions both with your client, the clients of others, and to unrepresented third parties. In a 10-12 slide PowerPoint presentation with audio, which includes the title and references slides, describe what these duties are and what duties you owe to clients and to others involved in a real estate transaction. Use three to four bulleted points per slide and place your notes below the slide in the notes section. Include at least three references from sources outside your reading in your slide presentation.

Checklist:

In a PowerPoint presentation with audio:

Describe the fiduciary duties as a real estate professional:

  • To your clients,
  • clients’ of others,
  • and unrepresented third parties.

Submit the a) audio visual presentation link (the URL on your title page) along with your b) PowerPoint presentation (ppt. file) to the Assignment Dropbox before the end of this unit.

Note: You can use either a PowerPoint audio visual presentation (which does not require a headset, just your speakers), or you can use a TechSmith Ⓡ Jing™ with Screencast™ (Screencast™ allows you to share the link to your Jing™ presentation with the instructor).

If you decide to use the TechSmith Ⓡ Jingâ„¢ presentation, it is available as a free download from the company website, but requires a headset). See an example here of an instructor’s TechSmith Ⓡ Jingâ„¢ presentation. For this option, you will create the PowerPoint presentation and then use the Jingâ„¢ download to narrate as you show viewers around your PowerPoint presentation (great for sending to potential employers). A potential employer may click on the link (created by Screencastâ„¢), and hear you narrate your PowerPoint of your resume or portfolio.

Journal

In the town of Smallville there are two real estate brokers. Broker Jones’ office is on the east side of town and broker Smith’s office is on the west side of town. Together these two brokers control all the real estate transactions in town excluding those done between private parties.

Lately, in an attempt to increase income and market share they have been having a listing war where each has been lowering their commissions to break into the others market. However, on this fine, sunny day, they find themselves on the town’s only golf course playing a round of golf. They discuss their current competition and decide that in order to increase income, instead of having a listing war; they can both increase their income by only accepting listings at 7% and only accepting listings in their current market area. They also agree to refer any listings outside their market area to the other broker. Homeowners who want to sell their houses have become upset with this arrangement and have sued the two brokers.
