RealEstateU Reviews and Promo Codes

I enjoyed the videos, they were really helpful. After taking the CE shop that only had a couple of videos that were not long at all.

The videos we slightly too long for the actual information. But I assume that’s one way to ensure you reach the 75 hours

If you want to become an agent do it. I took the final exam 5 times before passing 4 times with CE Shop and 2 times with Real Estate U. NEVER GIVE UP.

I did the whole thing at my own pace and that I didn't have any technical issues throughout the whole class. I do think that they should create an app. That way it's easier to access instead of having to get on the web on my phone. It was a good course, so make sure you pay attention to the material because it was very similar to the actual exams themselves.

This is a New York STATE course for a New York STATE exam. For whatever ODD reason, the random law (I wouldn't say "professionals") figures lecturing the course use New York CITY each...and every...time as a reference point for every poorly explained example of real life situations regarding these banal terms in pseudo law jargon such as "bundle of sticks"? and "fee simple"? and "estoppel"? and making simple things confusing by using "broker" and "agent" interchangeably and giving no example of when the different TYPES of agents would come into play. Which is very important.

For some reason RealEstateU thinks it's responsible and that it's ok to use the city in teaching material for a state and neglect to mention state matters and slobber and ramble through important definitions and texts despite people paying for this and having to pass an exam in this and trying to make a career in this. This is absolutely unacceptable. Sure YOU might be a real estate lawyer for 30 years or a successful agent for 10 years or you were born into the industry and didn't learn real estate academically but through experience instead (and it shows people), but it's clear that you're either out of touch and unfit to be an instructor, and/or you are used to using unintelligent babble and layman's vocabulary in your everyday business being a city slicker, and clearly while teaching an expensive course too. It's frightening that I'm only on chapter 3 and already I can see problems; the fact that these people dared to teach a course for a STATE BUT ONLY DISCUSS NYC is indications of nothing good. I'm from NYC but I'm upstate now and considering that the NYS real estate license is reciprocal and able to be transferred to different STATES, I would like/need information that's also transferable! I wrote down each and every lecturer's name in the video so far and if I have to I will cuss them out PERSONALLY.


The only reason I give two stars instead of one is because firstly, it's a 75 hour course, unnecessarily so, and that's not the instructor's faults. There is NO NEED for it to be THIS long. That's a whole lot of blank space to fill and where it IS the instructors faults is that they fill the space by rambling about crap regarding NYC but fail to use that time to narrate or demonstrate scenarios. I'm not saying film a sketch here. But a mere explanation of when someone would be the principal, the seller, the seller's agent, and the customer, and an example of when there's trust violations and bad practices occurring such as price fixing or market allocation WOULD BE NICE. I know what these things ARE BY DEFINITION but I have not a shining CLUE of how to recognize them for real, yet, but we've breezed right through these terms?! I'm not finished with the course yet, but it's starting to p___ me off!! Not to mention the DAUNTING task it seems to be to schedule the state exam. I'm like 10 hours in or something and I can't get this time back. Another reason for the extra star is because the course layout and website so far are just fine if only encased in the videos were tolerable people.

There's been 4 instructors so far and only 1 hasn't ticked me off, and he was the first one, an empty promise of a good thing. The 2nd instructor was boring himself lol and while he gave many examples, he gave weird ones like haunted houses. Was that supposed to wake me up!?? Because all it did was give me trouble sleeping, thanks a lot butt hole. And the third instructor for chapter 2 was RACING THROUGH everything so much so that he was stuttering back to what he was saying. NONE OF IT made sense?! I literally muted him and was bored to almost literal tears, I was actually BANGING MY HEAD ON MY TABLE listening to him!!!!! I couldn't WAIT for the chapter quiz. And now I'm on the 4th chapter and this woman is a NIGHTMARE! She's saying things that DO NOT match the notes in the same slide nor the study terms under the video!!! It's like she just didn't feel like explaining it! Is she high? Clearly these people are volunteering their time and don't really care? Or they're getting paid and don't really care. If it doesn't get better, please expect to not hear the end of my mouth!! I will go to each of these people's social medias and leave very nice messages for each of them for wasting my time and money and career ambitions.

It was an easy set up to use, and I was able to do work on it at my own time. I would suggest working on it early in the morning for a couple of hours before you start your day that way, you get as much as you can complete. From personal experience, I am more of a visual learner and would've liked visual presentations like videos, animation, and pictures. I thought it was an awesome way of getting my license and at a great price.

It was all convenient, and I was able to get licensed twice as fast if I were to go to an in-person school. As having a career in the education industry, I think that the program was well put together, and having it available online was just genius. I have recommended this school and will continue to do so.

I thought it was helpful to have all the important information put into one booklet to study. If you study this religiously for a couple of days, there is no doubt you'll pass.

It was easy to follow, easy to work on my own time, fast to complete, and super cheap. Be sure to stay focus and finish it quickly. Put all your effort, and do not procrastinate. I thought the whole course was good, yet I do wish they provided more materials rather than everything being online. I believe that a physical book would be super helpful and simple to follow along with.

I thought it was inexpensive, the set up for proctors were painless, and their testing was very effective. If you do decide to do online, I'd highly suggest you make sure you have a good computer and also a camera for the proctoring. In my opinion, a lot of people think that if they pay more for a real estate school, that'll be more effective but that's not the case. I spent little with this course and got top quality information.

I liked it. It was very user friendly, and customer service was extraordinary. Every time I reached out, they would respond so quickly and fix any issues with no problem at all. Just be sure to take notes and listen to the recordings. All the curriculum tests were easy, but the final exams are a bit challenging, so make sure you absorb all the information. One thing that would make it easier is if the recordings would provide a timestamp, that way if we needed to refer back to them, we could. I thought it was a great program.

What do you like about RealEstateU?
Realestateu was very user friendly. The course set up was great. The videos were easy to watch. Everything they went over was on the NY real estate test.

What are some things to improve upon?
Some of the answers on the tests were different from what was taught. A couple of the videos were monotone and hard to sit through.

Anything else you'd like to share with other agents?
This is a completely legitimate course. I was skeptical because of the price but I completed the whole thing and am now a licenced real estate agent.

Affordable, easy to use, and certainly at your own pace. You have an entire year to complete. I'm taking the courses for Texas (there are six total). I find I can do a course once per week and pass each final with ease.

I don't find any improvements that need to be made, I have enjoyed these courses.

Highly recommend this school for those that are looking to go at their own pace. Lots of great information and I have to say, the Texas instructor is phenomenal.

RealEstateU has good customer service.

However, they could improve on the fact that there was no study guide for the chapter exam is discouraging then if you don’t pass you have to pay again to take the whole chapter again it’s discouraging they need to update the videos and I force study guides cause some folks are visual learners in need to be in a classroom setting my opinion enforce study guides and better videos !!!!!!

If you are a visual learner I recommend you go to a class setting they have no study guides to help you prepare for chapter exams

I will give this course 3 stars...the Instructor for the state of Texas is not very clear through out the lectures, its hard at times, to understand his "twang", and, more often than not, his voice fades....be prepared to buy multiple notebooks and pens because there is ALOT of material that you will NEED to know, if you don't want to take the test multiple times. I feel that this course in particular, will not prepare me well enough for the exam.....

It was convenient while going to school and working a real estate side job. With the schedule I had, I could not go to an in-person class with working and going to college. You do need to pay attention to the state material because the state portion seems to be a lot harder than the national exam. It was a great class, and I would recommend to people who have a busy schedule as I did.

Being able to do it remotely from home was awesome. I would suggest redoing the quizzes before taking the actual exam. The one thing that was a bit tedious was having to look at a blank screen while listening to audio. I think it would make it more entertaining with a visual of anything, like maybe key points or vocabulary words.

It was a very simple and a very user friendly website. Getting a hold of a proctor was easy, and also the sections were evened out very well. I say go for it. It's cheap and very effective. Passed all my exams on the first try.

The interface of it all was well structured. I noticed that there was not much preparation for the state portion, which is why I had to purchase an outside test prep to prepare. The national section was great, though, and it prepared me very well.

Real Estate U was really good. I am happy that I used the test prep because, without it, I would not have passed. It contained potential questions the exam would ask, and they were a lot more similar than I expected, especially on the state portion.

It was very convenient with my schedule and really liked that I was able to work on it at any time. The material was a bit dry, in my opinion, but I do think that it was relevant to the state and national exam. I do think that they should make the curriculum more entertaining by adding visual content, such as videos, or just be more interactive with its users. I did like Real Estate U because the price is great, the material is relevant, and it is straightforward to navigate.

It was somewhat helpful. I think that it needed to be more user friendly, instead of having to read all the information. I think it would be beneficial if they were to include something more interactive like videos, flashcards, fill-in blanks, or multiple-choice questions. I think having different ways to study helps retain the information faster and efficiently.

It was all easy to navigate, and it prepared me very well for my exams. I would suggest paying attention because this is not a course where you can flip through and pass easily. You have to actually retain the information and take as many notes as you can.

Being able to do everything online at a low price was super convenient. I liked that it was an accredited school, and I was able to do everything at my own pace. I think it had its moments of being difficult, but it was manageable to get through. If you decide to use this school, you will need to know if you can do the online learning style. Be sure that you can absorb the information and that you are self-motivated to complete it.

The convenience of not having to sit in a classroom worked out really well with my work schedule. I'd say to take your time to read and understand the material. Make sure you let the information sink in and put it all together for the exam.

The fact that it was all online was why I chose it rather than having to drive every day to a classroom. I did notice that a lot of material wasn't covered in the course, so I had to buy an extra course to prepare for the exam. In other words, don't use the test prep provided from RealEstateU, but the rest is fine.

There was a good combination of videos to watch, along with reading sections. I liked that they changed it up. They let you retake the practice tests so don't worry about getting it all perfect. The only downside is that I sometimes felt like I sometimes spent more time reading than the course actually counted towards my hours.

It was flexible, and I was able to work on it at my own time. I advise users to take notes and go back into the information if you're unclear about something and rewatch the videos they provide. One issue I think they should fix is to add more information for the state portion of the exam. I failed the state exam on the first try, and I've heard of others who said that the school needs to include more information onto the state exam.

I really liked the online aspect of everything. If you're good at learning on your own, I'd recommend this option for you. One thing I think needs improvement is the entertainment to keep their users engaged. Another thing they can do is organize their study structure to make it easier to understand. I had a hard time going through it, and I think they should organize it more. I thought the program was effective and very affordable.

It was super effective, and I passed the exams on my first try. It gave me a really good idea of how the exams were going to look like and it was very well structured.

The format is really old school. It's just a person reading and the material is redundant. I got this on Groupon, so at least I didn't have to pay very much.

I mainly needed something quick and online, so this was the way to go. I'd suggest to do it because the curriculum is great, there's a quiz after each section, and there are highlighted words to help you know what to study. It very inexpensive and great quality.

Real Estate U was much cheaper than the other schools I looked at, which was important to me. Their review materials helped me prepare well before each quiz. It was pretty easy to follow along.

It was good…a little bit boring, but all classes are. I found it interesting because it's the line of work I want to be in. It can feel boring if you don't like the material. I didn’t ever need to contact support, but I liked that they are there if I needed them.

It met the state's requirements for hours of study and it was affordable, which was nice. When I had questions, I was always able to get in contact with an instructor online.
