When Michael began the RealtyTutors program, he had not studied for a long time. But he had a thirst to succeed. He knew that he needed to obtain specialized knowledge of the realty profession in as short a time as possible.
His choice of RealtyTutors made his dreams a reality.
Like Michael Lum Min, Nikki Newson also knew she needed to move quickly if she was to get her career break.
As a marketing assistant for a real estate developer, Nikki knew the market. She knew how deals worked. But she needed her realtor's license to make the income she always wanted.
She also knew that getting licensed takes on an average, almost a year for many realtors. Too long, given she was also raising children.
In addition, the thought of learning on her own the complex mathematical calculations for property and interest rates was intimidating.
She then turned to RealtyTutors and finished her licensing in just over a month.
"I heard the provincial exam was difficult. They (Realty Tutors) condensed the course into something manageable and focussed on what was the really important stuff," she said. "They also gave us a mock up exam so you don't have to go in blind (for the exam)."
