Here is what our professionals and partners have to say...

“I love the bonus entitlement section. Most realtors won’t know this and depending on the types of clients they work with, they may never be asked. However, I also don't want to be like most realtors, I don't want to tell a client, to go ask your lender. If my client came to me after receiving the wrong answer, I also want to know that it’s wrong so the client doesn’t make a bad decision. When a potential client asks you, "Can I buy a second home in Texas" I love knowing that I can answer that beyond the other 10+ default answers like, go ask your lender, DM me and I can do it for you, etc. Being able to explain it, give an example or even solve their question over a forum is a huge win for them and you. Add in the ability to discuss one-time restoration, how it works, and the pros and cons of both is a huge advantage.”

Jason Rivera, Keller Williams Realtor DRA 02055758

“All of the Basic Movements training modules add value. Well timed, and Shonita is an excellent trainer. Tiny bits of info needs updating but overall great content! ”

Amie Dusa, Senior Mortgage Advisor & Owner at Educated Investors Finance Corporation NMLS 1838160

Laura Brandao, Mortgage Industry Leader, Chief Growth Officer and partner at EPM

“I found the Restoration & COE Breakdown and the Multi VA Loans courses most impactful. I have much better knowledge in those categories now.”

Melissa Schilling Ashcraft, Realtor at Texas Luxe Real Estate

“I came to leadership looking for education so that I could be better for my clients. The time, energy and resources put in to making these tests GREAT does not go unnoticed. Thank you for challenging us each and every day! ”
