OK...let me start by telling you that I am not done entirely with courses nor have I passed the state exam or anything BUT I am almost done with a 6 week course. I hadnt been in school for over 20 years...so this whole process is a bit scary for me. Still...these guys are the best. I cannot emphasize enough how pleased I am that I chose this school...even to just re-aquaint myself with the entire educational process.
The location is great...the school itself is wonderfully functional. They have break rooms and stuff which I have no real interest in, but the little things are all in place. The seats are comfortable and the rooms temperature controlled well. Lighting is good and visually all is just right...which can be important when you have 70 people or more all sitting in the same room for a session. Nevertheless, the thing that is most appreciated by me is the teachers.
Each teacher that I have had seems to be a true expert in their field. I worried that people teaching these courses to subsidize their incomes might not be the most successful of real estate agents since my mistaken philosophy wondered why a successful realtor would bother teaching this crap.
Heres why. Because they enjoy helping others. Now isnt that the type of realtor that you would want assisting you with your home purchase of sale anyways? So before you even realize it you are already being mentored by somebody whom you wish to "do business with"...and the business for this six weeks is learning this exciting field and all the laws, policies, standards and practices associated with it. And I have news for ya...its fascinating.
I cannot imagine being more impressed with the teaching practices of anybody else more than each and every one of the instructors that I have had. I can stay alert despite my fears that I wouldnt be able to. I'm not intimidated to ask questions and participate and there is no fear that "I wont get enough out of" any of the sessions in the 90 hours because I can always just take it again if I like with no added charges.
All that they seem to care about is making sure that I become as well versed an agent as possible. The course is worth three times what I paid for it, even if I had no intention of using the license for which these classes are intended. I have learned more about this new and wonderful region of the country than I ever would have otherwise as well as things pertaining to water rights and EPA issues out here. Plus...I've made some good friends in the process.
I cannot recommend this facility enough! Once again...I havent cracked a book open in over 20 years but I feel like I am learning and excelling every day here. Thanks guys!
