Real Estate Agent Training Online Summer School

Many agents are seeing their 2008 production sink like the rest of the real estate and overall business markets. Now they don’t have to let the tough market drive them down or even out of the business. For the first time during the summer, agents can use the power of the Internet and take several accredited courses to diversify and expand their skill set.

According to a Thomas Mitchell, a spokesperson for RealtyU, each and every one of the timely online courses provide Realtors® new practical skills that they can put to work immediately in their local market.  They will enable them to: 

Grow their business. 

Better serve their clients. 

Secure more listings. 

Find more buyers. 

Improve their marketing. 

Sell listings faster. 

As an added bonus RealtyU has also certified five of the online courses to qualify for a specific designation allowing agents to become accredited as a:

Luxury Home Specialist (ALHS)

Staging Specialist (AHS)

Short Sale Specialist (CSP)

Neighborhood Specialist (CNS)

Sellers Specialist (ASR)

According to the National Association of Realtors® (NAR), agents who hold one or more designations consistently make more money than their counterparts; often up to 2 times as much.   A recent Member Survey shows that Realtors® without any designation earned a median of $40,900 while those with a designation earned a median income of $82,900.

According to Mitchell the Summer Online Savings (SOS) event includes special offers on five sought-after real estate designations: ASR, AHS, ALHS, CNS and CSP.
