Quincy Ma Realtor Madelene Semeria Earns Loss Mitigation Certification Designation

Madelene Semeria of CENTURY 21 Abigail Adams, Quincy, has successfully completed the Massachusetts Association of Realtors Loss Mitigation Certification Course (LMC) offered by the Plymouth and South Shore Association of Realtors. Madelene Semeria adjusts to increasing foreclosures, short sales and corporate owned properties in Massachusetts.

This comprehensive one-day course was developed to educate Realtors on the intricate issues and problems associated with transactions involving foreclosures, short sales, properties being sold by auction, and bank-owned (REO) real estate. The course is taught by national and local industry experts in loss mitigation and is designed to equip Realtors with the tools and knowledge needed to deal with short sales on both the buying and listing side; the process, ethics, laws, contracts and credit issues involved and how best to work with lenders.

Lastly, the course addresses the human element of these transactions as consumers face losing their homes. “These transactions can be hugely complicated with many players, let alone the emotional component,” said Semeria. “I feel better equipped to advocate and advise my clients with the knowledge gained from this course, I definitely have an advantage”.

Upon completion of the Loss Mitigation Certification Course, participants earn lifetime usage of the LMC designation and continuing education credits necessary for real estate license renewal.

South Shore Real Estate Company opens real estate school offering real estate salesperson pre-licensing courses to prepare you for your career.

Abigail Adams Real Estate School is now open to enrollment of students for pre-licensing and continuing education classes at their Norwell, Quincy, and Marshfield locations. Classes commence Monday, January 5, 2009.

School director and owner, Jayne Magown, is an experienced broker licensed since 1979. She earned her Commonwealth of Massachusetts Instructors license in 2007. She is a member of the Plymouth and South Shore Association of Realtors where she serves on the Board of Directors and as Chair of Education to its 2480 members.

“After hearing so many stories from new licensees regarding the impersonal nature of listening to tapes or sitting in a room with 30 students, I immediately recognized a need for small classroom live instruction,” said Director Jayne Magown. “Classes will be kept small in order to enhance the learning experience. With the failure rate now exceeding 50% on the State exam, smaller classes should provide the learning platform for many more to pass.”
