About This Course
Arizona is a state with limited water resources. This scarcity of water has significant implications for real estate transactions. Real estate professionals need to understand water rights, water availability, and water conservation practices to provide accurate information to their clients.
This course is designed to teach students about Arizona’s complex water issues, including availability, distribution, and rights. You’ll explore key topics such as Active Management Areas (AMAs), Irrigation Non-Expansion Areas (INAs), and their impact on growth, conservation, and property transactions.
This course fulfills one of the new Arizona Continuing Education (CE) requirements for real estate license renewals, effective January 1, 2025. To renew their licenses, real estate agents and brokers must complete one hour of CE on Arizona water issues, and this course satisfies that requirement.
