How Good Faith Efforts to Sell Property Can Lead to Allegations of Fraud

Description

                                                    3 Hours Real Estate Legal Issues                                                          

Real estate transactions often involve disclosure decisions that seem routine at the time but can later become the basis for significant litigation. This course examines how sellers, real estate professionals, and investors can become entangled in fraud, nondisclosure, negligent misrepresentation, and consumer fraud claims arising from residential and commercial real estate transactions. Participants will learn the elements of common law fraud, Arizona disclosure requirements, the role of material defects and latent conditions, and the limits of contractual protections such as "as-is" clauses. Through practical examples and real-world scenarios, the course will provide guidance on identifying potential risks, understanding common defenses, and implementing best practices to reduce the likelihood of post-closing disputes and fraud allegations.

Instructor, Ben Gottlieb
