I thought that in the Principles of Real Estate class that the teacher said that once the broker requests your license you can begin practicing the forms of Real Estate, thus meaning they don’t necessarily have to possess your license yet. However, the company I signed with has said they won’t start my training until my license comes in. My “mentor,” however, has a house she wants to co-list with me tomorrow. The company was supposed to have sent my application for licensure in on Wednesday and the listing would be saturday. Can I legally co-list?

The CMBS market is paralyzed and the CMBX says prices will fall 23 percent over the next three years. There are a lot of interest only commercial real estate mortgages in CMBS portfolios and many will begin amortizing this year. If a recession is upon us and those borrowers can’t meet their debt service requirements under the new amortization - it seems to me we have a repeat of what is happening in the subprime universe.
