REALTY INSTITUTE allows salesperson licensing students the opportunity to mix and match classes in accordance with their own busy schedules by offering classes both during weekdays and weekends each month. There is also a liberal make-up policy in the event a subject is missed.

The subjects taught are mandated by the Dept. of State and include license law, agency law, contracts, deeds, leases, financing, closing and closing costs, fair housing, valuation of real estate, land use, construction, and environmental issues and real estate math.. These subjects are taught in a comprehensive, yet easy to understand manner with instructors fully prepared to answer your questions as they arise. This is important to you, since often the material being taught might trigger a question about another topic. Because all of our instructors are long time professionals in real estate and instructing, you will be able to get those answers immediately, rather than having to wait until someone familiar with another topic might show up again. Additionally, we pride ourselves on our EXCLUSIVE TEACHING MATERIAL. As a salesperson attendee at REALTY INSTITUTE, you will be using material specifically prepared for our INSTITUTE. Unlike commercial textbooks used by most schools, our textbook is updated immediately on an as needed basis. The advantage to you is that as laws or rules change, you have the written changes in your hands immediately. When commercial material is used it might take a year or two to have the textbooks updated to the most current information. We supply you with typical questions for study and the correct answers. At any time you don’t understand the reason for a particular answer, the instructor will be able to explain it to you as soon as you ask. Finally, we supply you with a 2 hour audio tape that condenses the most important points in the course and allows you to study the terminology and points easily. By listening to the tape over and over, even the terms that are totally unfamiliar to you when you begin, will become recognizable and understandable quickly and efficiently. As a result of this exclusive material we are proud of the extraordinarily high percentage of students who successfully complete our course.

We have our own teaching facility for your comfort and convenience rather than using transient hotel space. This lends itself to a quiet teaching environment with everything needed right on site.

We are a full service real estate licensing school offering not only salesperson licensing courses, but also broker licensing courses, mortgage broker courses and a wide variety of continuing education courses both in the classroom and at home. Kindly look over our schedules and call STEVE to reserve a seat in one of our upcoming classes. Thank you for visiting our website.

We look forward to the pleasure of meeting you in the future.
