CURRENT ISSUES IN WA RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE 20-21

Every two years, the Washington State Department of Licensing (DOL) and Washington State Real Estate Commission (Commission) releases a set Current Issues (CORE) curricula specifically designed to provide a mandated three-hour legislative, legal, and business practices update for real estate professionals. For the 2020/21 CORE curricula, DOL and the Commission utilized the following data points and resources to guide eventual content determinations:

• An alignment review of RCW, WAC, and other legislative mandates

• An assessment of real estate compliance data • An identification of new key issues/trends and out-of-date content/topics based on real estate firm/stakeholder input received April through May 2019.
