About the course

Applications open soon - this programme is pending NZQA approval.

A career in real estate is a mix of office work and being out in the field, and the commissions are a direct reflection of the hard work applied. It's a fast-moving career that combines people skills with data analysis and an understanding of market trends. This certificate provides you with the knowledge, skills and requirements for entry into this exciting industry.

Become familiar with auction and tender methods, the law of agency and land ownership, council zoning, building law and the transfer of ownership and titles. Complete sale and purchase agreements, and learn about the legal requirements involved with the sale of real estate. You also look at how to identify misleading and deceiving conduct and misrepresentation, and develop your negotiation skills.
