  • This course represents the second half of our two-part series about the American housing experience. We begin where the first course left off, with housing styles that, for the most part, came onto the scene in America during the years leading up to the turn of the 20th century, and remained popular well into the 1900s. We hope the text and illustrations will encourage you to think about how events have influenced the evolution of our industry right up to the present day, and provide you a broader repertoire in conversations about housing style with clients or peers. 
  • The objective of this course is to help real estate licensees learn how to correctly advise their clients about how specific housing styles, designs, and functionalities evolved historically, and how those historical factors impact current housing design decisions.

    Hollis Willeford
