Please note that anyone entering ORRA's campus is required to wear a mask at all times. Class seating will be socially distant and social distancing guidelines must be honored at all times.

In this course you will learn about the most common environmental issues (wetlands, sinkholes, protected species, and hazardous waste) that can be “deal breakers” and how each of them relate to real estate transactions (in other words what affect they may have on a buyer or seller, if present). You will leave with a list of questions your Buyer or Seller should ask about a property that may have environmental issues associated with it. You’ll find out what to do if you encounter these challenges and the steps to take that can keep you on track and on your way to the closing table.

Linda Olson

Linda Olson is a Realtor with D. Basile Real Estate, LLC in Melbourne, Florida. Linda specializes in all non-residential property types, especially vacant land throughout Brevard County.

Linda brings a unique perspective to the real estate field as she also has 20 plus years of experience as an environmental consultant. This allows her to offer specialized services regarding the intricacy of determining the developability of a property and to provide advice as to how to optimize a property's use in relation to environmental concerns. Linda also uses this expertise to assist Owners to set a competitive price that considers what a Buyer may need to do to develop the land. In addition, she helps Buyers to negotiate a better price on the purchase of land as she can assist them to determine the costs of improving the property such as completing environmental studies, assessing impacts, and providing mitigation.

During both Linda's environmental and real estate careers, for more than 10 years, she was actively involved with the local Home Builders and Contractors Association. The additional knowledge that she gained from this association and the contacts she has with builders, remodelers, and distributors of products gives her unique information and insight into "green" building techniques for improving a home's energy efficiency.
