Real Estate Courses

Friday, August 20th, 2010

The Real Estate Centre offers a variety of real estate courses for your fun and enlightenment. They also make great gifts (it’s true). Seriously, whether you’re just starting in real estate and want to become a sales agent, or whether you’re an experienced agent ready to become a real estate broker, we’ve got the courses you need. And, we’ll tailor a program to meet your unique needs. What more could you want?

Our statutory course offerings include: real estate principles, real estate practice, legal aspects of real estate, real estate appraisal, real estate economics, real estate finance, property management, and mortgage loan brokering. All courses are completed on a home study basis; testing is online and open book. Think about it, you can complete all of the required courses for your salesperson or broker’s license and never leave your house (or even get dressed). Again I ask, what more could you want?

Once you’ve met the statutory requirements for the licensing exam, you’ll want my exam prep class. I offer two options: the live class for anyone in Southern CA, and a home version for those who live too far away. The material is updated weekly to stay current with changes to the tests. In the one day live class, our instructors (the best instructors in CA) will review everything covered on the real estate salesperson and broker exams. It’s a busy and fun-filled day. I ask for the last time, what more could you want?

So, if you’ve been thinking about starting a real estate career, or taking your current career to the next level, call the Real Estate Centre at 310-410-9718 or check out offerings at www.realestatecentre.biz. It’s all that you want, and more. I guarantee it.

The power of pants

Friday, May 21st, 2010

Here’s food for thought for your weekend: someday soon you may be able to plug your iPod, or cell phone into your pants for a charge. Sound unbelievable? It does to me, but researchers at UC Berkeley have created microscopic fibers that can produce electricity from simple body motions like bending or stretching. You can read all the details in the LA Times article, One day your pants may power your iPod.

Now, you may be asking yourself, what does this have to do with real estate? Absolutely nothing. But, there’s not that much currently going on in real estate that’s all that interesting. The best news I’ve read this week is that the CA real estate market isn’t getting worse. The economy still hasn’t recovered to the point where we’re seeing a real upswing in the market. I know it’s coming, it’s just slower than we’d all hoped for.

If you’re interesting in taking advantage of lower prices, or want to be positioned to jump in when the market starts to turn, now is a great time to get your real estate salesperson or broker’s license. Start now and you’ll have the license of your dreams by the end of the summer. To find out more, check out the links below.

To find out how you can help someone start a career in real estate, check out the Real Estate Centre’s Jump Start Program program. This program includes the courses required for a real estate salesperson license, along with our one day exam prep class.

If you’re a licensed real estate sales agent, and want to make use of the current slow conditions to get a broker’s license, the Real Estate Centre offers a variety of courses to help you achieve the goal. Find everything you need at the following link: Broker’s License Courses.

Need to take your salesperson or broker exam, and just don’t seem to get around to it? Enroll in our Exam Prep. Over 90% of our students pass their real estate licensing exams, on the first try.

Whether you’re new to real estate, or you’re a sales agent ready to become a broker, the Real Estate Centre has a program for you. Order online at www.realestatecentre.biz, or give us a call at 310-410-9718 and let us customize a program to meet your needs.

PMI is back!

Monday, April 26th, 2010


Private mortgage insurance companies to return to market, ran as a headline in one of the LA Times articles on April 25, 2010. Although buried inside the Business Section, to me this is an important step in stabilizing the housing market. The article describes how many lenders are again requiring borrowers with less than a 20% down payment to purchase PMI to help mitigate the risk.

Additionally, the FHA is changing some of its requirements for down payments on homes it finances. The traditional 3.5% down payment for FHA loans is still available for home buyers with FICO scores of 580 or higher but buyers with less desirable scores will be required to put 10% down. The FHA is also asking Congress to approve higher rates for their mortgage insurance premium, which for the average home buyer brings FHA loan rates more in line with private mortgages. Hopefully these changes will help further stabilize the housing market.

Groundhog Day Robot? Give me a break!

Monday, February 1st, 2010

I heard a news report this morning that seemed beyond crazy, even for PETA. Apparently, PETA has announced that the whole Groundhog Day event is too stressful for the weather-forecasting Punxsutawney Phil and wants him replaced with a robotic version. For details, check out Groundhog Day, the robot way on CNET.com. That said, if PETA has its way and Phil ends up out of a job, and may find (like you) that he’s interested in a career in real estate.

If you’ve been thinking about getting a real estate license, the Real Estate Centre can help. And, in honor of Phil and his plight, we’re even offering a discount on our courses. Use the coupon code “phil” to receive a $5.00 discount on any order placed between February 2 and February 8.

The horrors of working with home buyers

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

When I worked actively in real estate, my preference was to work with sellers. Buyers just seemed to be too much work for me. A recent article in the Wall Street Journal entitled A Picky Home Buyer Pursues an Epic Hunt for ‘the One’ highlighted my worst fears. Do you have similar horror stories about working with buyers (or even sellers)? If so, send them to me at johnhenderson@realestatecentre.biz, along a brief description of how you solved the problem. I’ll post them on the blog, and not only will you gain fame and notoriety by having a post on John Henderson’s blog, by sharing ideas and solutions to problems, we’ll all become better at our jobs.

I’d like to wish all of you a successful New Year. Please remember the Real Estate Centre is here to help with all of your real estate education needs.
