About the course

This 3-hour CE course provides a comprehensive deep dive into the DMAAR Universal Purchase Agreement and its most critical addenda. Rather than just reading the forms, you will engage in a structured walkthrough designed to improve contract accuracy and protect your clients' interests. Through instructor-led lectures and scenario-based discussions, we bridge the gap between theory and real-world application. You’ll gain the confidence to manage complex timelines, handle repair negotiations, and avoid the common errors that put transactions at risk.
