In this 4-week, 4 part class, the learner will gain a thorough understanding of buying and selling property, as well as mortgages. The class will be divided into the following weeks and topics:

Week 9: Mortgage Rates - Understanding interest rates and how they affect the cost of a mortgage.

Week 11: Property Taxes - What property taxes are and how they are calculated.
Week 12: Insurance - Different types of insurance required when buying a property and why they are important.

By the end of the class, learners will have a comprehensive understanding of real estate and be able to confidently navigate the buying and selling process. Homework will include various assignments and projects, both individual and group-based, and will take approximately 1-2 hours per week. Progress will be assessed through informal assessment and individual feedback. Parents should note that this course requires no prior experience.

The flexible schedule (Recorded Flex Class) allows your learners to watch the pre-recorded videos and do them at a time that is FUN for them! You can also spend extra time on the topics your child is most interested in. Since this is a flex class with no live meetings, students can log in at a convenient time to complete the week's lesson. We will be going through each week as a group and I will post the lesson weekly (depending on which day you started).

The videos will contain the information required to give students a good understanding of each topic and each one will include homework for the students to undertake during the week, as part of a project. 

After watching each video and completing the homework assignments, students will be provided with feedback and the specific next steps on how to improve or adapt. 
Time frame for the Week:
Mondays - The teacher will post the information needed for the week. Students can submit questions.
Tuesdays - Wednesday - The teacher can answer any questions pertaining to the topic of the week.  The students will need to complete any homework assignments and answer any questions in the discussion.
Thursday - Students need to have all tasks completed and uploaded in the classroom for teacher feedback and discussion. Students will discuss it among themselves.
Friday - The teacher will provide feedback to the class and individual students.
Saturday - Sunday - The teacher will be available to answer any questions that the students may have for the week or the next week.

Please note:
This course requires no prior experience.
