Why this is different
Written from inside
real commercial transactions.
Most Louisiana real estate CE is written to satisfy a regulatory requirement. These commercial leasing courses are written from inside the deals — the same letters of intent, NNN clauses, and CAM reconciliation negotiations the instructor handles every week.
Practice, not textbook
Every clause, every negotiation dynamic, and every Louisiana-specific rule in these courses comes from active commercial transactions — not descriptions of how deals work in theory.
Attorney-level precision
The instructor is a licensed Louisiana attorney and licensed real estate broker. Legal nuance is not avoided — the difference between a commercial real estate agent and a residential real estate agent on a complex lease is what the agent does and does not say. You will know exactly when to bring in legal counsel and why.
Commercial ready
By the end of both courses you can structure a letter of intent for a commercial lease, calculate total occupancy cost on an NNN deal, explain CAM charges and gross-up provisions to a client, identify default and renewal triggers, and protect your commission. The fundamentals every commercial agent in Louisiana should already have.
The Courses
Four LREC elective CE credit hours each.
Two courses available online — complete both for 8 of the 12 hours required for Louisiana real estate license renewal.
