Galveston Historic House Specialist Continuing Education Course

Ready to level up your historic property realty sales and marketing? Presented in partnership with Galveston Association of REALTORS® and Texas REALTORS, this continuing education course familiarizes realtors with Galveston’s architecture and history, as well as the influences that have shaped our island’s heritage.

This course provides an introduction to the basic architectural styles and forms commonly found on Galveston Island. Galveston boasts unique aspects of the built environment as a coastal community with over 150 years of development and redevelopment. The program will include an overview of historic preservation terms and processes, as well as important local, state, and federal programs that realtors may encounter. It will also address questions frequently encountered by realtors when dealing with the sale of historic properties in a hurricane zone. The overall project goal is to make all realtors more familiar with Galveston’s architecture and history, as well as the influences that have shaped our island’s heritage. Successful completion of the course will enable participants to sell and market on the island more efficiently and effectively.
