Information about Attending a Course
REALTORS® need to always remain professional and courteous, including with peers. Be respectful of peers and of the speaker/presenter during a class or event. Ensure your etiquette is at or above REALTOR® standards at all times.
Health & Wellness (in-person): If you are sick, please cancel your in-person registration and register to attend the course virtually. If you need to cancel first thing in the morning of a class day, please email Jayne (jayney@nmar.com) so that she can get you switched to virtual before class instruction begins (applies to all classes EXCEPT IN-PERSON ONLY classes). An email must be received one-hour in advance of the start of class.
"Double-Dipping" (in-person & virtual): NMAR doesn't allow attendees to 'double-dip' in their class registrations. You must register for one platform or the other. Meaning you must register for either in-person or virtual, not both. Our system does not track this. There are three (3) reminder emails that go out prior to each class. If you have registered for both, then you will receive six (6) reminder emails. This is three (3) too many! If you do not cancel one platform prior to the day of class, then you will be assessed a $25.00 No Call/No Show fee.
No Call/No Show (in-person & virtual): A $25.00 NC/NS fee will be imposed on any person registered for class and fails to show up for the class without having cancelled the registration or having informed NMAR Staff within 24hours of the class (emergencies not included).
Changing Platforms, In-Person / Zoom (in-person & virtual): Switching from in-person to zoom or zoom to in-person must be done by 12pm the day before the class, except for emergency situations (medical, family, etc).
Attendance: The Montana Board of Realty Regulation (BRR) requires that all attendees remain in class for 90% of the first hour of instruction and then 100% of every hour thereafter in order to receive a certificate of completion.
Please make sure that you keep/save all registration confirmation emails. This will be the easiest way to see what you registered for and to change your registration if necessary.
Registration for all classes closes at noon the day prior to the class to allow staff time to get ready for the class.
Mineral Rights - IN-PERSON
4CE hours, 8am - 12pm
Instructor: Braiden Burns
NMAR Members - Click Here to purchase Education Voucher first before registering for classes.
Understanding the ownership of Minerals is generally very misunderstood. This course will give Real Estate Agents an understanding of the laws associated with mineral ownership vs. surface ownership of fee simple land, state owned land, federally owned land, and mining claims. A portion of this course will be presented under Mineral rights. Mineral ownership is superior ownership of the land and they include the right to sell or part of the interest, the right to enter the land to produce and carry on production activities, the right to lease the mineral rights to others, and the right to create fractional shares of the mineral interest.
