National Broker Exam Prep
FINAL PREP-PSI – National Questions for Brokers
An Exam Prep for Real Estate Broker Candidates Based upon the Required PSI Exam
This exam prep is provided to those students who are preparing to take the state-mandated exam to become Real Estate Brokers in their state. It is not an official or otherwise sanctioned testing mechanism, and is meant merely to provide a determination of your preparedness for taking the Proctored Exam given by PSI (Psychological Services, Inc.) in your state. This is the national portion of the exam. In order for this testing module to be truly effective you should have completed broker educational coursework.
Like the official exam that you will take to gain your license, this test is comprised of questions dealing with issues applicable nationwide, and with state-specific issues. To help you retain the information presented here, these subject areas are presented separately and all questions have feedback to explain the correct answer.
You will study the following subjects:
- Land Use Controls and Regulations
- Valuation and Market Analysis
Fundamentals of Mortgage Lending
This course provides an introduction to the basics of mortgage lending, from qualifying the borrower and qualifying the property in the underwriting process, to the various types of financing available, to closing the sale. The course begins with a discussion of the forces that control the market: supply, demand and the government. The student will learn the varied methods of real estate finance. Lenders run risks in making real estate loans; for this reason, they must have a firm grasp of a borrower’s financial qualifications. They consider a borrower’s income, credit, debt, source of funds and net worth. However, no analysis, no matter how thorough, of a borrower’s creditworthiness can be enough to make a loan free of risk. The second lesson introduces the different legislation related to real estate mortgage of which the student must have a fair knowledge. The third lesson describes the mortgage market and the way it is divided into primary and secondary lenders.
The student will learn how title, the abstract ownership rights to the property, is transferred to the buyer with a deed. The earnest money contract will also be discussed: terms of the contract, contingencies and earnest money deposits. In lesson five, the focus turns to closing. The student will learn the customary costs involved in a real estate transaction, how certain items are prorated between the buyer and the seller and the requirements set forth by the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act (RESPA).
Lesson six discusses foreclosure. It considers what happens when a borrower is in default of the mortgage contract and how lenders may help borrowers prevent foreclosure through forbearance, moratoriums and recasting. Also discussed is how, when these techniques fail, the property is foreclosed and sold at auction and how the creditors are repaid.
The module continues with the types of mortgages available. The seventh and eighth lesson discuss the elements of conventional loans—conforming and nonconforming—adjustable rate, graduated payment, growth equity and reverse annuity mortgages, to name a few. The advantages and disadvantages of each type of financing are emphasized so that the student may better understand the decision-making process inherent in real estate finance.
Two specific types of financing, FHA-insured and VA-guaranteed loans are reserved for separate lessons. FHA loans are insured by the government and perceived as less risky by lenders. They are available to all natural and naturalized U. S. citizens, but they carry a monthly insurance premium that cannot be canceled. VA loans are guaranteed in part by the government, but are only available to veterans, active servicemen and certain national guardspersons and special reservists.
At the end of each lesson, the student will be asked to complete a quiz that tests the information covered in that lesson in order to move on to the next lesson. The course ends with a real world practice lesson that brings together the concepts and material discussed throughout the entire course.
