Begin your Pennsylvania real estate education
Start with a clear understanding of the principles behind property transactions. Elite Real Estate Academy's Pennsylvania Real Estate Fundamentals course introduces aspiring salespeople to the language, concepts and professional responsibilities that form the foundation of a real estate career.
Learn through 30 hours of live Zoom instruction with Trent L. Pettus. Ask questions as you study and discuss course concepts directly with your instructor, bringing guided classroom learning to your home.
What you will learn in Real Estate Fundamentals
- Property ownership: The rights and interests associated with real estate.
- Real estate law and contracts: Foundational legal concepts and agreements used in property transactions.
- Agency relationships: The roles and responsibilities of real estate professionals.
- Fair housing: Principles that support fair and professional treatment.
- Financing and Pennsylvania requirements: Basic financing concepts and state-specific considerations.
The course follows Chapters 1-11 of the academy's course textbook and concludes with a scheduled review and Fundamentals course exam.
Who this course is for
Fundamentals is a structured starting point for career changers, first-time real estate students and aspiring Pennsylvania salespeople who want to understand the profession before moving into transaction practice.
Prepare for your first class
Review the available schedule and individual class dates before enrolling. You will need a reliable internet connection and a device suitable for live Zoom instruction. Check the academy's enrollment agreement and required course materials before your first lesson.
Your next step after Fundamentals
Continue with the 45-hour Real Estate Practice course. Together, Fundamentals and Practice form the 75-hour Pennsylvania salesperson education path.

Kevin, I believe learning should be both fun and interactive. I’m glad you were part of the first class at Elite Real Estate Academy, and I appreciate your participation.
We had five of our licensees in their most recent Agreement of Sale class. It was so beneficial for everyone. Only good things to say about the information and the instructor. The Zoom option made it so convenient for everyone.
Reply from the academy
Yve, thank you so much for your kind review! I am glad to hear that your five licensees found the Agreement of Sale seminar valuable and that the Zoom format made it convenient for everyone. I look forward to seeing your team in future seminars. Thank you for your support!
