The 2012 Real Estate Institute

Celebrating 30 Years of Great Education and Camaraderie With Colleagues and Friends From Throughout Minnesota

New Law Updates, 62 Sessions, 85 Faculty, Time-Saving Written Materials, and More!

The Real Estate Institute is the best way to make sure you are up to date on all new cases, legislation, title standards and more. It also provides practical instruction on dozens of topics and includes a wealth of valuable resource materials. Check out the detailed schedule provided in the brochure and make your plans now to attend this year’s conference.

 

Short Plenary Sessions and Breakout Choices on Both Friday and Saturday

In order to make the Institute even more tailored to your needs, the plenary sessions are short on both Friday and Saturday, with many breakout sessions planned to give you maximum flexibility in creating a conference that is the most valuable to you. Each breakout session time is filled with diverse topics allowing you to choose those most relevant to you. Of course, the Institute text includes materials from every session, even those you don’t attend.

 

This Year, the Materials Will Be Posted Online Before the Institute!

For the first time, written materials for the Institute will be posted on the Minnesota CLE website before the Institute, accessible to all persons registered for the conference. Review the materials to help make the best possible breakout session selections, download the materials to your iPad and bring them to the conference, or begin your study early. And, of course, materials will be provided at the Institute.

 

Special Free Bonus Session on Saturday Afternoon

This year we are offering a special “Cocktail Law” program Saturday afternoon after the completion of the Institute – at no charge to Institute attendees. This extremely popular session tackles common questions encountered by attorneys outside their areas of expertise. This year our moderated panel will include questions you may be asked about criminal law (your client’s son just got arrested for a DWI), family law, bankruptcy, wills and trusts, and more. You’ll also get a chance to purchase our very helpful Quick Answer Book at 50% off – a book every attorney should keep on their desk – a book that helps answer many of the common questions you may be asked in diverse areas of law.

 

Free Post-Institute Webcasts – Including 2 Hours Elimination of Bias

As another special bonus of attending the Institute, you may attend 2 of the 3 webcasts listed below for free! A coupon code, along with instructions on how to register for free, will be distributed at the Institute. These webcasts will be approved for CLE credit.
