Can Anyone Recommend A Fl College That Offers The 63 Hour Pre-license Real Estate Course Online?
Misty;
a; congrats on the idea to become a RE agent
b; do not under any circumstances, continue on with the idea
of taking the pre-licensing course on the internet.
here’s why:
[for renewal courses, that is a different story and is fine]
[and i am a teacher, so I speak from 3x experience]
RE is a wild, almost wonderful world that is confusing,
complicated, that CHANGES and that requires at times
detail memory. [feet to an acre, length of time between renewals]
time to deliver earnest money checks, etc.
the #1 thing to know is FIDUCIARY; whom you represent.
AND, what CREATES fiduciary
–what actions are legal and what are not, at the state and
federal level.
IN 100 years, I could not have passed my test had I not
participated in classes AS A STUDENT with an expert
instructor. I wanted clarification, conditions and why’s.
you can’t get that with on -line data.
and, depending on which testing system your state
uses, they often toss is DUMB questions to trick you.
[and something i am fighting in court, they ask
extra, test-test questions; that is immoral and unethical to me!
go to a local real estate school.
I will tutor you
stay in touch
I don’t know anything about colleges in Florida, but here, you can go to community college for those classes. However, you may be able to do it without paying too. Call a couple of the big agencies in town and ask them if they have scholarships for real estate school. The broker I worked for paid my way to real estate school. I went every day for about 3 weeks, maybe 4 (this was about 20 years ago now), and the thing I really learned was how to pass a test. The stuff you learn in real estate school doesn’t really have a lot to do with being a real estate agent. I’d still be one if it did. There was no minimum commitment once I got the license either. I worked there for a couple years, but I could have just walked away at any time. The best part of being a real estate agent was going out to lunch at new subdivisions, and the weekly caravan to see new listings. Otherwise, I hated it. I earned enough money to pay for a college degree by selling a few houses a year. It sure beat working at Wal-Mart 20 hours a week for peanuts.
