[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yeongdeungpo-gu (District Mayor Chae Hyun-il) will operate an ‘Online Real Estate Academy’ for two months starting from the 4th of this month to address residents’ questions about the rapidly changing real estate market and to easily convey revised laws and policies.

The ‘Real Estate Academy’ has been providing comprehensive real estate-related policies and updates tailored to residents’ perspectives for real estate agents and other interested residents, receiving great responses every year through valuable lectures by renowned experts in the real estate field.

This year, to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and to provide educational content continuously, the program has been fully converted to online video lectures instead of on-site classes.

The lecture videos are posted on Yeongdeungpo-gu’s official YouTube channel, ‘Studio Tium,’ allowing not only real estate agents who wish to take the course but also any resident to watch safely and comfortably anytime and anywhere.

This year’s education consists of a total of three sessions, with lectures given by Dr. Ryu Sang-gyu, a real estate Ph.D. who is a full-time instructor for practical and training education at the Korea Association of Realtors and a visiting professor in the Department of Real Estate at Daegu University.

The lecture topics are ‘Recent Amendments to the Licensed Real Estate Agents Act and Education on Preventing Brokerage Accidents.’ The first session covers ▲‘Revised Real Estate Laws’ such as changes to the reporting date of actual transaction prices in sales contracts and ▲‘Personal Information Protection Act’ including cases where resident registration numbers can be collected and security regulations.

The second session covers ▲‘All About Brokerage Fees’ related to the Housing Lease Protection Act, and the final third session explains ▲‘Commercial Building Lease Protection Act’ and other ‘Real Estate Legal Consultations and Precedents,’ focusing on actual cases to help participants’ understanding.

Lectures can be accessed by searching ‘Studio Tium’ on the YouTube platform and selecting ‘Real Estate Academy’ from the playlist.

Additionally, the district has produced 1,200 copies of the Real Estate Academy textbook containing key information on real estate brokerage and transaction reporting work, which have been distributed to licensed real estate agents operating in the area.

Through this, the district expects significant help in strengthening the professionalism and practical skills of local real estate agents and in preventing brokerage accidents in advance.

Chae Hyun-il, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, stated, “We have prepared lectures focusing on revised and changed matters for residents and real estate agents who are confused by the constantly changing real estate policies and system reforms,” and added, “We will continue to do our best to protect residents’ property rights and foster a sound brokerage culture through various educational programs related to real estate.”
