Real Estate School Online?

After much thought and deliberation I have decided that for the new year I am going to change my career. I am a certified teacher but the job market is awful as we all know. I am currently working as a retail manager but aside from the crazy hours and little pay I just truly dislike the entire industry! So after many discussions, hours of research, and a lot of soul searching I have decided that a career in real estate is a great fit for me. So with all of that being said….

I need to take the first step towards my new career and I need to decide on what school to go to for my licensing class. I would prefer to do it online. Does anyone know of any schools they could recommend? TIA

the cheapest is LIBOR (long island board of realtors)

make sure you get the book- the questions from the state test are in the back of the book

I know nothing about the profession but I got an email about a livingsocial deal that had a steep discount on a class.

If you can't find it on their site, I can forward you the email if you give me your address.

I used NYREI. I went to classes b/c doing it online, I would fail Chat Icon It's $395 + $40 for the book.

It was 2 weeks (Tues-Sat). They say the hours are 9-5pm but we never stayed that late.

The school test was easy b/c the teachers tell you the questions/answers. The state test is hard, took me 3 times lol.

Any questions, feel free to FM me.

Re: Real Estate School Online?

Thanks Sandy. I prefer to take the classes online so I can still work at my current job for as long as possible. I know I am a "good student" and have taken some online college courses in the past successfully so it shouldn't be a problem staying focused. Thanks for all of the info. The closer I get to jumping in, the more excited I become about starting my new career.
