Here is a story about a expensive mistake one of our students at Climer School of Real Estate made. Kathy got a phone call from one of our students that was driving to the Pearson Vue test center in Melbourne. She had forgotten her certificate from the school and she asked Kathy if she would fax another one to the test center. Kathy charges ten dollars to do that. The students told Kathy that she would call when she got to th Melbourne test center and give Kathy the fax number.
When the student asked the Pearson Vue clerk for the fax number, she was informed that test center does not accept faxes. She would have to go down the street to Office Depot to receive the fax. I am certain there was a fee to Office Depot for that.

Florida Real Estate Exam, What To Bring With You on Test Day
When you go to take your Florida real estate exam at the Pearson Vue test center, bring your certificate from your real estate school. If you don't have your certificate from a Florida real estate school, Pearson Vue will not let you in. This seems like a simple thing. Many applicants show up at the test center without their certificate. Adios $31.50. They will not let you in. Even if you are there for the second or third or fourth time, bring your certificate from the real estate school. If you fail like 56% of the first time test takers did last month, get your certificate back from the clerk at Pearson Vue. They won't let you in next time if you don't have it.
Here is another problem. Some real estate schools give their students a fancy looking diploma that you might say is "for novelty purposes only", suitable for framing. This is cool looking. It will not get you into the test center. You need the official real estate school certificate with the ZH number of the real estate school on it.
Another thing you may want to take with you is your glasses. If I showed up without my glasses, I may as well not show up. If that is true for you, bring whatever glasses you need to read the computer.
It seems to me that everyone would carry proper I.D. I have learned at Climer School of Real Estate that many people do not carry proper identification. Take your driver's license. Take your passport. Take two forms of I.D. Read the "Candidates Handbook". if you need more instruction.
Bring a simple calculator. You can not use an alpha calculator. Bring a ten dollar calculator.

Take a little box of chocolates for the clerk. Rumor has it that if you bring a box of chocolates, the clerk will give you the easy test. I am not sure that is true. Who knows? Bring a smile and a box of chocolates. Maybe you will get the easy Florida real estate exam. www.climerrealestateschool.com

Florida Real Estate Exam Pass Fail Results For August 2013
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation has released August's pass fail results for the Florida real estate exam. The new pass rate is slightly better than July.
In August 2013, two thousand two hundred and fifteen applicants paid Pearson Vue $31.50 to try the Florida real estate exam for the first time. They were all high school graduates. They all graduated from a 60 hour basic real estate class at a real estate school. Some of them took this class in a classroom. Some of them took this real estate class online.
Of the 2215 first time test takers, 1025 of them passed. That is a 46% pass rate. That is the best pass rate since the DBPR launched their new Florida real estate exam in February 2013 . At the same time 2529 repeat test takers took their Florida real estate exam for the second, third,forth or fifth time. 798 of these repeat test takers passed. That is a 32% pass rate for the repeaters. You would think the repeaters would do better than the first timers. It costs $31.50 every time you take the Florida real estate exam.
I would think many first timers don't know what to expect. After you have made a fifty per cent on a test you thought you were ready for, you might start looking for some help.
If you are looking for some help, a good place to start is watching the twelve real estate math videos that I have posted on You Tube. If you have already taken the Florida real estate exam, you will recognize these problems. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZb_k4kq9h0&feature=c4-overview&list=UUyBcLU3Ccx-ZxAyemcXWd1w Here is a link to one. There are eleven others. If you are taking the Florida real estate exam soon, you need to watch all twelve of these. They are free. There is no easier way to learn the real estate exam math.
If you want to know if you are ready for the Florida real estate exam, take my one hundred question practice test on my website at www.climerrealestateschool.com . If you have already had the practice test at Pearson Vue ( the one that costs $31.50 ) , they gave you a sheet with a few study suggestions. This is exactly what you need to be studying. This material will be on your next test. If you don't have this sheet, call Kathy at 407 822 3926. She will send you a complimentary copy.
Read your "Candidate's Handbook" It has a breakdown of what is on the exam. If you need a lot of help, call Kathy and ask her about Linda Crawford's " Exam Manual for Florida Real Estate Associates" This is the book that we use at our two day state exam review. Many people call this the cram course.
Linda Crawford is a professor at the University of Florida. Her exam manual is the best study guide to study for the Florida exam. Many people took their basic course at a real estate school from another state. They have been studying material to help them pass a national exam. We don't have a national exam in Florida . You need to be sure you are studying what is on the Florida exam.
If you are anywhere near Orlando, come to my two day state exam review. This is the best way to learn what is on the Florida real estate exam. If you can't make it to Orlando, we have our Florida real estate exam review online. We have it on audio CD. We have it on video DVD. Call Kathy at 407 822 3926 or www.climerrealestateschool.comThis is the easiest way to be on the winning side of the pass fail results on the Florida real estate exam.

A Simple Easy Prospecting Tool for Realtors
Holding an "open house" is still a wonderful prospecting tool. Buyers walk into open houses. It is not especially efficient, but it works.
If your phone is ringing so much that you don't have time to answer it, you don't need to be sitting in an open house on Sunday afternoon. If you could use a few more prospects, sitting in an nice open house in a good neighborhood waiting for a prospect to walk in is not a bad way to spend your time. As people walk in, what if they can not afford the house you are sitting in? They can afford something. If they can't afford the $400,000 house you are sitting in, maybe they can afford a $300,000 house. Is that OK?
Don't make holding an open house a chore. Select an empty house with electricity. Bring a few open house signs. Bring your computer. Bring a contract. Bring some brochures and business cards. Bring a pen. Bring a chair or two.
If you are going to hold an open house on Sunday afternoon from one to five. Get a sign that says,"Open Sunday 1-5 and put it in front of the house Monday through Saturday. On Sunday, show up on time. Wouldn't it be great to have a prospect waiting in the driveway for you to show up.
Have a little "guest registration" book for prospects to sign. Ask for their name and address and phone and email. What a great prospect list. When people walk in greet them and just chat with them just like you would chat with a guest in your home. You could write yourself a list of questions if you like. Questions like
What attracted you to this house?
Have you been looking long?
Do you live nearby?
Are schools a concern?
Do you need a refrigerator magnet ?
This may not be the most efficient way to prospect. It certainly works. Have an above average awareness for your personal safety. ladies, leave your purse in the trunk of your car and your keys in your pocket with your cell phone and your pepper spray.
Have some brochures about the house. You could also create a single sheet brochure" The Three Best Ways To Finance This House" Make a sheet with three columns. Show 20% down with conventional financing. Show FHA with FHA down payments and the FHA loan amount and the PITI payment. Show VA with no money down or USDA financing. Show how much income you need to qualify. If your company does not have such a form, create your own.
Open houses have been working for Realtors to sell houses and find prospects for a hundred years. Open houses still work. The house pictured above is at 21 Stone Gate N. in Longwood. It is for sale in MLS. www.climerrealestateschool.com
