Several locations and lots of great teachers! They were very quick to provide help too. If you miss class, you can go to another location later/earlier in the week to make it up which is a nice option. You can also change up locations to experience different instructors. They also offer a free weekly study group once you "graduate" that provides practice tests and allows for further questions. There are some extras you can purchase too... You can purchase or rent books which is great if you are tight on cash. I would recommend purchase as I liked being able to highlight and write in my book. You can purchase online materials (prep agent) that help supplement your learning. You can also purchase a 9-5 pm crash course to prep for your test date. I highly recommend the extra purchases. I just took my test and I passed on my first try! Thanks NRE! read more

The whole process has been very amateur. No one will answer the phone, ever, they won't submit all of the required paperwork to the board, and they will give you misleading information about things like live scan. Being that this is the only thing that they do, you would think that they could actually do it correctly. They can't. All that, and, the phone number that they originally gave me was for an employee that had already quit, or been fired. I've been calling a defunct number, and no one bothered to tell me or call me back. I finally Google searched and found a different phone number than what was advertised and got a live person to actually call me back finally. So frustrating. There are so many places to choose from, choose wisely. read more

Enrolled in classes which were very valuable and the team and locations made taking classes easy. They are to the point with no fluff. The online phone app was critical for me passes the first. I would still say this school Is an A+ in my book just wish the kept you on target with more interaction. I would also recommend purchasing the books vs renting them. Thank You read more

Nationwide Real Estate school does an excellent job at preparing you for the state exam . They also offer a crash course to really hone in on the material . Definitely a course you should take ! read more

NRE Schools - Vocational & Technical School Near Me - Buena Park, California

It's so refreshing to get service beyond what you are expecting which is my experience with the team of people at NRE. I became aware of them through Groupon. While enjoying a good price for education- I didn't expect that the service and level of support would be stellar- as it was. Thank you so very much! I attribute my success in passing the exam on my first attempt to NRE! read more

So far it's great! I'm usually in this location now with instructor James. He's funny and entertaining each class. He's straight to the point with his teachings. There a lot of laughter and jokes as well. Located in the building with ample of parking except for certain classes like Saturday 9am. There's also plenty of street parking as well. DON'T PARK AT THE HOSPITAL OR ANY OTHER PLAZA. You will get towed. Yikes! Bought this thru Groupon for 149, which isn't bad for classes to obtain a license with certification. I was a bit hesitant because of the helper. I felt uneasy from how she rushed me to complete the Groupon and sign papers. I called a week ahead to ask if it was possible to attend one class and decide there. She assured me it was perfectly fine. When I arrived and spoke to the James, he didn't even mind. The class was great! Just wished she was not up your face about the papers. read more

I passed the RE's State Exam on my first attempt. Choose this school if you want to be like me :). I had a great experience with Nationwide Real Estate Schools due to the quality of their class lectures and also because of the instructor (Don) and staffs (especially Griselda) in this school are very friendly, experience, and helpful. Not only that, they had the best options in terms of all require classroom lectures, practice tests, and exam preparation materials that are needed to pass the state exam. I suggest you attend all of the classroom lectures. It is important that you do because their classroom environment is great, fun, and informative. Don spent answering every questions and concerns I/other students had. You will learn so much more this way. Also you can repeat the classes as many as you want until you are confident in taking the state exam. Another thing is that the classroom lectures and study guides were easy to follow and understand. They had the materials that were exactly on the state exam. I definitely recommend Nationwide Real Estate Schools to everyone who wants to pass the Real Estate's state exam, boosts their knowledge on Real Estate Principles and Practices or get their license for work in the field. So attend classes while take good notes, study the required course materials, ask questions if needed and you will pass the state exam. Thanks Nationwide Real Estate Schools for helping me passing my Real Estate's State Exam. read more

Best life changing decision I've ever made with a $200 Groupon for this school. You will no longer make a blind decision about choosing a real state school based on my personal experience as a student with Nationwide Real Estate School. Not only they strive to help students pass the exam with the first attempt by providing students with all the right tools and guidance but their determination don't stop should you don't succeed with the first attempt. They will stand by you support you and provide additional resources until you've successfully passed the exam. Of course, a school can only be as good as a great team behind it. Thanks to: Griselda, Lauren and Shannon with all your help and support that made my experience with your school a memorable one. read more

Great staff and they really are helpful with any questions about the programs. Even after you pass the open book tests they would always email me about making sure to take the test as soon as possible after failing. Roxanne kept encouraging me and told me I could go to another crash course for extra help. Thank you Nationwide!!!! read more

Great Place to Learn. I am sure that one can study the books at home and attend an online class to pass the exam. BUT, you will not be able to learn what DON has to teach you from experience. An individual with great heart and knowledge, who actually cares what you learn. If you wanted to learn from experience and understand the subject well, you should attend this class. Griselda will be of great help with all the back end work, she is efficient and will make sure you get all the support you need until you pass your exam, which I hope you do in your first try, Good Luck. read more

Nationwide Real Estate School helped me pass my test the first time! Griselda and Don were great; very knowledgeable and supportive. There are 16 classes and 3 books, you learn vocabulary and real world scenarios by going to class and are responsible for homework each week. I learned a lot and became a licensed agent. This is the place to go! read more

From day one when I started my course here at Nationwide I knew I made a good choice. The environment and the people here are terrific! The way the course is set up with homeworks and take home quizzes really help you keep track of your progress during the 3 months classes. Things have changed a bit over the course from when I started 3 plus months ago from a hand written white boring board to a powerpoint projector which is a plus btw. We all know how lecturing classes can be boring but the instructor here made it fun and interactive at times, we all get a good laugh out of it at least I do. FYI: this is definitely a note taking class so bring notebook and pen!! In all, I'd like to thank Don and Griselda for helping me achieve my goal today. read more

Wow! Who knew that a coupon on Amazon Local would yield such amazing results! I am so happy that I took advantage of the amazing deal for my real estate courses. They allow you to go at your own pace while still giving you a guideline on when courses should be completed. The books were on a loan out process so we never had to purchase any materials. Just turn it in when you are done with the 1st book and they give you your second book and so on. Griselda is amazing!! Any questions or concerns this is your go to person right here. Don was my instructor and he was awesome. I am sure they have amazing teachers lined up as the new students file in! I took notes and recorded at the same time because valuable information is being given while in the process of taking notes so just a heads up. You can also go on the youtube page and look up any classes you may have missed because the course is taught in one big loop. So no matter what week you start eventually you will get all of the courses completed. I recommend...make that strongly recommend the crash course!! Please sign up for this. The tip is to not get so concerned with what's in the book that you miss the questions! So the crash course gives you lots and lots of sample questions that you might see on the exam. So block out your Saturday and Sunday (because it is a 2 day course) right before your exam to take advantage of some last minute hints and tips. Enjoy and Good Luck!! read more

SIGN UP NOW!!! If you've read the other reviews you already know the staff here is amazing. Griselda is very responsive and answered any and all my questions immediately. Don is hilarious and made the experience engaging and entertaining. Would recommend to anyone looking to get into real estate wether for enrichment or business purposes. I passed my exam the first time thanks to this great and supportive team! Thank you everyone at Nationwide! read more

I just passed my real estate exam.NRE staff who extremely helpful for my all questions and also they have wonderful staff who always advise you to pass your exam. read more

I took my RE classes at the Buena Park location. The instructors are great and make the class fun and engaging. The entire process took about 3 months before I was able to apply for the state exam. I highly recommend the crash course to anyone looking to pass the state exam on the first try. read more

Loved the real estate course. I had tried a self pace course but I didn't feel motivated and didn't have anyone to keep me on track but myself and that's when I purchased a groupon for Nationwide. I loved how the classes were weekly which was perfect for my full time work schedule (might I mention that the classes were interesting and very informative) They give you a specific outline to follow and as long as you follow it you will do great! I took the prep course with Nationwide as well and listened carefully to all of their instructions and passed the test on my first try! Griselda the school administrative is amazing! I don't know how she does it all. She is very helpful and always responsive. I'm so happy I found Nationwide Real Estate Schools! read more

I was very happy with the service at this location. Classes are cheap compared to other locations, the girls are very friendly and helpful. I personally loved when Don taught the class, I stopped going after his departure. He entertained the class was fun and very smart. I am already in the real estate industry, attended the classes to learn more. You can definely complete the whole course in 12 weeks if not less. Good luck! read more

Choosing Nationwide Real Estate School was, in my opinion, the BEST choice for R.E. education! The online study tools that were offered were amazingly easy to use and access any time was key to me passing the exam. Having the ability to listen to audio lessons in the car while driving, webinars to access during lunch hour and the exam prep questions were THE BEST STUDY TOOLS I could ask for. Thank you N.R.E., Ben, Lovell & N.R.E. staff for the awesome experience read more

Great school! Passed the exam on the first attempt! Class contents are totally aligned with what is going to be required at the State exam. And management and staff is super-friendly. Recommended! read more

I can't give this school enough praise. Their passion, and compassion to teach their specialty is top notch. Special thanks to Darlina, Ben, Lovell, and Roxanne. Also thankful for the multitude of special guest speakers. They even allow you you attend special meetings attended by their whole office. You really feel like you can do anything. They have a great support system in place, and the Crash Course was top notch and really helped me prepare for the exam. First time pass right here. Can't wait to join the team at Nationwide Real Estate Executives. read more

After taking the 10 weeks course I passed my real estate test on the first try, I was very impressed by everyone's professionalism and dedication to make their students succeed, very lucky to have found this school thanks NRE and staff ! read more

I attended Nationwide RE school to complete my three courses. The class lecture was very helpful and I enjoyed most instructors. The class slides were very good studying material as well. I finished the courses in 10 weeks. read more

I got my real estate license!! Thank you Nationwide! I took this course last year(Hollywood location) and LOVED every moment of it. Most people suggested that I take an online class but I personally loved this program because it required you to come to class. I ALWAYS looked forward to going to class! I loved the energy and LOVED the teachers. I had Don for about 2 classes than Mark came and took over the class. They were both wonderful. I currently now work with Keller Williams and I just love being in this industry. Forever grateful :) read more

Great school, (Ben and Art) are amazing and are easy to learn from while in class. I signed up for the online training that helped with the simulation of the actual test, I really recommend this school for your real estate license needs! I passed on my first try and right away the team at NRE got in contact with me to Congratulate and set up an interview! WOW! read more

If you've even THOUGHT about learning real estate, look no farther. Don and Griselda will give you all the tools you need to succeed in this field. Study exactly as they tell you, and in no time you will have a real estate license (most likely on your first try) and on your way to making $$$ in the field!! The course, and especially the JET training once licensed, is top notch! Thank you again, Don and Griselda, for being the best and supporting me with anything that I needed along the way!!! read more

If your goal is to become a real estate agent, you've reached the right place. Within 5 months, I was able to get my license, and that's because I had a great team beside me. When I first started, I didn't have any knowledge about this domain. However, the staff got me up and running in no time, ready to take the state test. In short, great program + great staff = great results! read more

I passed the exam on my first try after attending 3 months of classes at Nationwide Real Estate School. The Saturday class is taught by a well experienced real estate insider, Don. He not only covered the required subject, but also shared a lot industry secret with his students. I was looking forward to attend Don's class every Saturday morning. Our homework, test, and paperwork were organized by Griselda. The success of this school is directly related to Griselda and Don's hard work. The secret to pass this exam is to DO ten practice exams (about 1400 questions provided by the school) after completing Don's classes. read more

Really good experience studying with NRE schools. I am an independent learner who likes to manage my study time myself and the course allowed for this. I think it also caters for those that need a little extra support with weekly study sessions. I would recommend using NRE schools to obtain your real estate license. read more

The school was a very insightful and fun way to learn about Real Estate. Never a Dull Moment with Don as your instructor and The Office Manager Griselda was the best. She was very coordinated and on top of things. I have referred several people to this place so far! read more

Great school, Griselda and Don were the best, very helpful. There's tons of classes available in different locations and at different times of the day, so its very convenient to study within your own schedule. Their program might be a bit confusing at first, but once you get through the first book and the first couple of classes it becomes easier, so don't get discouraged. I didn't take the crash course, so can't say anything here, but I did study by the tests material pretty hard and passed from the first try. (to be honest I didn't expect to :)) but the exam seemed easier than the study materials to me).. so all in all great school and I'm glad I was their student! read more

I researched the different Real Estate Schools that the Long Beach area had to offer. After visiting their Web site and checking out their Youtube videos, I decided this was the program I wanted to enroll in. I am so happy that I did. Don Sutton is an excellent Teacher and has 10+ years in Real Estate. He teaches exactly what you need to learn to pass the Real Estate Exam. It was because of Don and Nationwide's 12 week class that I passed the test. Don's assistant, Griselda, is amazing at keeping you on track with your paperwork and deadlines. I would and have recommended Nationwide Real Estate School to anyone who is serious about passing the California Real Estate Licensing exam. read more

Great school! I was able to do the course at my own pace. Got great study materials once I completed my course to prepare for the state exam. With the study materials received and crash course they have available I was able to pass the state exam on my first try. Due to the great training they offer I signed on as a Realtor with NRE. Looking forward to working with the team. read more

Passed the exam, yay :) because of this school. Don is an awesome teacher, very knowledgeable. He makes it interesting and actually care about his students. The staff is very friendly, Griselda will always get back to you in a timely manner. The class schedule is flexible. If you missed a class, you have the option to go to a different location, or watch youtube. But dont just watch youtube, better go to Don's class. You will actually learn something. Enough said... just do it :) read more

Passed the exam on first attempt thanks to Nationwide! The weekly class, practice exam materials, quizzes, and crash course was very helpful and the staff are super friendly. I appreciate Don and Griselda's assistance throughout this process! read more

I'm happy to have been recommended to this school. They have been great in teaching real estate in a way that's fun and easy to understand. I liked that I could take the class at my own pace. I passed my state exam confidently, because of my experience with this school. I highly recommend Nationwide if your interested in starting a career in real estate. read more

Had a wonderful experience here. I have heard about real estate classes where they teach you how to pass the exam, but you don't actually learn anything else. This class was so much more than just teaching you to pass the exam. Don taught in a very entertaining and interactive manner, and demonstrated how all of the real estate lessons applied to real life scenarios. He also taught about how to manage your career, and the best ways to make money once you're out in the field, which I felt was invaluable information. I learned so much information that is going to be of use in my professional career, as well as my own real estate ventures. And, I also passed the exam, first try! Nationwide Real Estate Schools is a win. read more

Don is a fun and knowledgeable instructor. Not only does he prepare his students well for the upcoming test but also shares his valuable insights/practical matters in the industry. I also enjoy the humor he slides in every now and then during class to keep students interested. Griselda oversees the students' weekly homework, weekly class materials and the test application paperwork. She is very friendly and responsive to emails/phone calls. She strives to answer emails within the same business day. I had a great overall experience at Nationwide, so thanks! I passed the test on my first try recently. read more

What a great place to do your real estate schooling. I personally attended the school in Laguna Hills with James Watson as my instructor. I not only passed my first time through, I finished the state exam in an hour. But you have to do as instructed, study. The branch manager at that office, (Leah) is just a sweetheart of a human being. Great experience overall for me. read more

I passed my exam last month. Don was the best instructor and Griselda was always there to help with any questions. I would highly recommend this company. Trust them and do what they say and you will pass the exam too. read more
