During this course students will be confronted with a variety of problems that typically challenge brokers in the handling of a transaction. Prior to the presentation of each scenario, the brokers will be given/reminded of some background information they should know about the Agency Law, License Law, Forms, Fair Housing, Drafting Principles, Disclosure, Advertising, Earnest Money, Unauthorized Practice of Law and other issue of significance to the provision of Real Estate Brokerage Services. The students will have to synthesize background information and knowledge and apply it to a resolution of issues. Resolution will require students to employ good communication skills, problem solving skills, hone quick decision-making resources (who can a broker reliably call for fast assistance), recognize high-pressure bullying from the other side of the transaction and develop a response, and collaborate to develop solutions to real problems faced by real brokers.

Annie Fitzsimmons


Annie Fitzsimmons is the Washington REALTORS® Legal Hotline lawyer and has served the brokerage community in that capacity since 2001. Along with answering thousands of questions for REALTORS® every year, she develops curriculum, authors articles, makes educational videos, serves as a public speaker for industry partners, testifies and advises regarding legislation that will impact the delivery of real estate brokerage services, and maintains a strong working relationship with regulatory agencies. Without question, however, her favorite pursuit as the Washington REALTORS® Legal Hotline lawyer is working with brokers individually and in a classroom setting to strengthen each REALTOR's delivery of brokerage services so that they exceed the expectations of their clients, preserve earned income and increase the standing of the REALTOR® community in and around the state.
Annie graduated with honors from the University of Washington School of Law and then joined the Tacoma law firm of Gordon, Thomas, Honeywell where she practiced until becoming the Hotline lawyer. Prior to attending law school, Annie sold real estate with her parents' real estate firm in Lakewood, Washington. Suffice to say, Annie has loved and worked with REALTORS® nearly her entire life.
