Central Florida Real Estate School It Ain't Pretty But It Sure Gets The Job Done.

      I saw this vehicle beside the road.  I stopped and took a picture of it.  I assume that machine mounted on the back of that truck is worth ten times the value of the truck.

     This reminds me of Climer School of Real Estate .  We don't have a a fancy Winter Park address.  We are in the Rosemont building  at 5104 North Orange Blossom Trail.  We have been there since 2002.  We don't have padded chairs and fancy tables.

     Our free real estate math videos are just me writing on the whiteboard.  We don't have any fancy graphics.  We know what is on the Florida real estate exam.  You will know what the math  is on the Florida real estate exam also if you watch my free real estate math videos on You Tube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICJEr5Zm6OM   Here is a link to one of these videos.

     There is nothing fancy or sophisticated about Climer School of Real Estate .  We tape the real estate class pictures on the wall with Scotch tape.  We post the class pictures on our Facebook page.  We use the post license text books more than once.  That is how we keep the tuition low.  We believe that students like low tuition.

     What we don't skimp on is the quality of our instructors.  We will tell you who the instructor for your real estate class is going to be.  Many real estate schools like to keep that a big dark secret.

     We also do an excellent job of researching what is on the Florida real estate exam.  We are constantly talking to students that have recently taken the Florida real estate exam.  We know what is on the Florida real estate exam.  Attend our two day state exam review and you will know too.  Call Kathy at 407 822 3926 for details on that.

     If you are wondering if you are ready for the Florida real estate exam, take our practice exam at www.climerrealestateschool.com .  If you are not passing my free practice test, you will not be passing the Florida real estate exam.  Mine is free.  Pearson Vue charges $31.50 every time you take the Florida real estate test.

     Last month, forty six per cent of the first time test takers passed.  Fifty four per cent failed.  http://ronclimer.blogspot.com/2013/04/florisda-real-estate-exam-dismal-pass.html   If wwe can help you pass the Florida real estate exam, contact us at www.climerrealestateschool.com,  or www.floridarealestateexam.net

Fingerprints for The DBPR

     Kathy received a phone call today from a real estate student at a competitive real estate school.  He ask her if we had someone come into our real estate class and take fingerprints for the Florida real estate license application.  Kathy told him, yes we do.  We have Brian Cox, a fingerprint expert, come into our classes and take fingerprints for our students for their FREC applications.  Because of the volume, Brian discounts his fingerprints to our

students for $55.

     This student told Kathy that the real estate school he was attending charged $100 for the fingerprints.  Kathy suggested that he he drive over to Climer School of Real Estate, which is only three blocks away from the competitive real estate school , and have Brian take his fingerprints.  He will save $45.  Kathy told him when Brian would be there. 

     Kathy also suggested that he watch Climer School's free real estate math videos on You Tube to help him pass the Florida real estate exam.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZb_k4kq9h0   Here is a link to one of the twelve free real estate math videos that we have on You Tube to help anyone pass the Florida real estate exam.  Kathy also got his email address and sent him a free copy of the "Candidate's Handbook".  This is a small booklet that every applicant for a Florida real estate license should read.  It has a outline of exactly what is on the Florida real estate exam.

     If you want to get your fingerprints done cheaply for your Florida real estate license application, call 877 238 8232 or call Kathy at 407 822 3926 and find out when Brian will be at 5104 N. Orange Blossom Trail.

Do I Need To Take A Cram Course Review To Pass The Florida Real Estate Exam?

Here is a picture of Shane Wise.  Shane took Climer School of Real Estate 's basic sixty three hour FREC 1 course.  His school exam was Monday night February third at six PM.  Shane walked out with a certificate and on Wednesday February fifth at eleven AM., Shane passed the Florida real estate exam.

This is not unusual.  Radha Persaud was in the same class as Shane.  She passed her state exam and got her Florida real estate license on February fourth.

At Climer School of Real Estate, we teach you what you need to know to pass the Florida real estate exam in the basic class.  If you are soon starting a real estate class, go ahead and apply for your Florida real estate license before you show up for class.  You can apply at www.myfloridalicense.com   The  process takes about three weeks.   If you start the process before your class starts, you can go take your state exam as soon as class is over.

You don't have to take the review cram course.  If you want to take one, we offer the best one in Florida about twice per month.  It is two days.  It is just me telling you what is on the Florida real estate exam.  If you would like a preview, check this out.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtflncxZjOo  If  you think you need a review to help you pass the Florida real estate exam, call Kathy at 407 822 3926 or www.climerrealestateschool.com   If you don't think you need a review, don't attend one of those schools that charge you for it in the tuition for the basic class.   www.floridarealestateexam.net

From The Horse's Mouth at The Department of Business and Professional Regulation

     Last year, for the first time in my teaching career, we ( real estate instructors ) received a memo from the DBPR. telling us a few things that we real estate instructors better be "concentrating" on in our real estate classes.  http://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/3840/blog_posts/27250-floridas-real-estate-exam-pass-rate

     This memo from Susan turned out to be a list of questions that were frequently on the Florida real estate exam.  A new 'memo' came today, February 2014.  Here is what it says:

     Helpful Hints for Instructors and Examinees

     Number one,  Familiarize candidates and students with the Sales Comparison Approach.

     Example or practice questions would be helpful in their studies, but please make them aware that all adjustments must be made to the comparable property, not to the subject property.

     If you have been in my real estate class, you know this is exactly how I teach this.  In the 36th edition of Linda Crawford's textbook on page 342, there is a box between line 34 and 35 in Chapter 15.  It looks like this.
                                 C omp     C omp
                                 B etter      I nferior
                                 S ubtract   A dd
I tell the students to look at that box and write this down under that box.  I tell the students to write this down EXACTLY the way I say it. I tell them to write:  Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never  adjust the subject.  Do not adjust the subject. Don't adjust the subject.  Always adjust the Comp.

                                  POP QUIZ
If the subject property has a pool.  Comparable does not.  A pool is worth $10,000. Do we?
A add $10,000 to the subject
B subtract $10,000 from the subject
C add $10,000 to the comp.
D subtract $10,000 from the comp.

A and B can not possibly be correct because we never adjust the subject.  Using our memory peg, CBS CIA, we add $10,000 to the comparable because the comparable is inferior. I may be mistaken but I don't think my students are missing that question.

     Number two  Have students review 61-J2 - 10030 F.A.C.   If you sell a bad rental list to a customer, they are entitled to a 100% refund if they demand it within 30 days.

     Number three   This is a quote " A section is one square mile."  A township is six miles square.

     That is it for Susan's memo.

     If you are soon taking the Florida real estate exam, know these three things.  If Climer School of Real Estate can help you pass the Florida real estate exam, contact us at www.climerrealestateschool.com In January 2014, fifty four per cent of the people that took the Florida real estate exam paid $31.50 to come back and try again.  The repeaters did even worse.  Do not underestimate the Florida real estate exam.   www.floridarealestateexam.net  

Florida Real Estate Exam, Pass Fail Rates for January 2014

     Pearson Vue gave the Florida real estate exam to One thousand nine hundred and sixty people in January of 2014.  Eight hundred, ninety four passed.  One thousand, sixty six failed.  They all paid thirty one dollars and fifty cents for the experience.  That is a forty six per cent pass rate.

     As a real estate instructor, I am often asked why the Florida real estate exam is so tough.  The test is not designed to be a picnic.  The Department of Business and Professional Regulation wants to make the test tough enough that they know that the applicant knows the laws of the state of Florida.

     The reason fifty four per cent of the people that take the Florida real estate sales associate  exam fail is fifty four per cent of the applicants are not prepared.  Many people that go take the Florida real estate exam for the first time are totally surprised.  No one told them that the Florida real estate exam was tough.  Their real estate instructor did not tell them what to expect.  Their peers did not tell them.  They probably did not know either.  The sales manager at the real estate office did not tell them.  Let me tell you.  The Florida real estate exam is tough.  Do not underestimate this test.  If you are unprepared, get ready to be shocked.  Prepare.

     Start by getting a copy of the "Candidate's Handbook" .  This little booklet has a outline of what is on the Florida real estate exam.  If you are soon taking the Florida real estate exam, you need this booklet.  If you don't have it, call Kathy at 407 822 3926.  She will send you a free copy of this valuable booklet.  If you have not read this article, read it before you go take the Florida real estate exam.  http://ronclimer.blogspot.com/2013/11/could-you-email-me-list-of-what-i.html   This will help.

     At Climer School of Real Estate, we want to part of the solution to this problem.  We have posted twelve free real estate math videos on You Tube.  Our user name is Climer School.  It is  free.  It is as easy as I can possibly make  it.  On these videos, we teach you the math that is on the Florida real estate exam.  The exam is ten per cent math.  It is easier to pass if you get ten out of ten on the math.  Why would anyone spend $31.50 to go take the Florida real estate exam without watching these free videos?   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICJEr5Zm6OM  Here is a link.  If you are soon taking the Florida real estate exam, watch these videos.  If you know someone soon to take the exam, send them this link.  They will thank you.  If you have already taken the Florida real estate exam, You know what the math questions are.  Do they look familiar to the ones on my twelve videos?  Are they the same?  Yes, they are.
You need to know how to compute deed stamps.  You need to know how to compute note stamps.  You need to know how to compute intangible tax.  You need to know how to compute interest.  You need to know how to compute acreage.  You need to compute next year's rent in a lease that is indexed to the CPI. You need to be able to compute commission.  If you can't, you will probably be in the fifty four  per cent that are paying $31.50 to try again.

     If an applicant took their basic real estate course online from a discount gypsy real estate school that specializes in all fifty states, they have to know that they are at an extreme disadvantage.  If an applicant took their basic real estate course from us, we know that they have been exposed to what is  on the Florida real estate exam.    We don't teach what is on the other forty nine state exams.  Even if you took your online real estate class from us, did you use your notes and books to help you pass the real estate school test.  If you did, be aware that you can not use your books and notes to pass the Florida real estate exam.

     How can you know if you are ready for the Florida real estate exam?  It is simple.  Go to my website at www.climerrealestateschool.com Take the practice exam that I have there.  If you make an eighty something on my practice test, you are ready.  If you make less than seventy five on my test, you will probably make less than seventy five on the big one.  Mine is free.  Pearson Vue charges $31.50 per try.

     At Climer School of Real Estate, we teach a two day state exam review class.  It is fifteen hours of me telling the applicants what is on the Florida real estate exam.  Most people take this class just a day or two before the take the Florida real estate exam.  Many students call this the real estate exam "cram course".  Most of the students in this class have already taken the Florida real estate exam.  In January of 2014, I had a young student attend this class that had already taken the state exam sixteen times at $31.50 per try.  He passed on attempt number seventeen.  He sent me an email thanking me for the review class and pondering why he did not seek me out sooner.

     If you are soon taking the Florida real estate exam, attend this class.  We teach it at 5104 North Orange Blossom Trail in Orlando.  If you can not attend this class, we have it on video and audio discs.  We also have it online.  Check out the details at www.climerrealestateschool.com  .  Lots of people with a tight budget don't attend the class but the buy the textbook, Linda Crawford's "Exam Manual".  This is the least expensive, best study aid you can lay your hands on. Call Kathy at 407 822 3926 for the details on that.

     The Florida real estate exam is not easy.  Thirty one dollars and fifty cents is not peanuts.  If we can help you pass the Florida real estate exam, contact us.  Our mission is to make getting your Florida real estate license a pleasant experience.     http://www.floridarealestateexam.net/         Have you seen this site?
