I decided to give Nationwide Real Estate Schools a try when I decided to go after my California Real Estate license. I had been licensed in another state and I figured it was time for the California license. I found a great price on the Groupon, too! The course is 10 weeks and includes a 2 hour Wednesday night lecture. The 3 required books are not included in the price. Other than Wednesday nights, you are studying on your own and the lectures won't necessarily coincide with the book that you are studying at the time. There is little to no interaction between "instructors" and students other than reading through PowerPoint presentations and receiving little to no real world application. Shout out to Tiffany! She is very professional, knowledgeable and happy to answer questions about the course, taking the book tests, and anything you need to know about the process. It's too bad that she's no longer there. My main critique, and the reason for subtracting stars, would be with the revolving door of instructors for the first half of my 10 weeks, and that I would like to see an instructor who is actually passionate about being a real estate agent and that will interact with the class, and provide more real world experience instead of just reading the overheads and talking about their personal lives. 14/100 read more

GREAT school with GREAT Instructors and staff, they help motivate you through the whole course, keeping you focused. After I finished the course they help you along the process of submitting your application to the DRE and, they help prepare me for the state exam. I used there online prep exam to study for the test, like they recommend, and passed the state exam.. Thank you NREschools! read more

I have contemplated getting into Real Estate for a few years. Raising children, working and lack of time got in the way. I took a chance on the NRA. I started with a Groupon coupon. Since that moment, I have been in all the way (even during the Covid-19). I did everything I was told and followed the guidance of the instructors. I passed the exam. . . second time. I was so excited!! I am ready for the next step with NRE's leadership. I would recommend NRE schools to anyone looking for a change in there life. read more

NRE weekly study groups are a must especially with tutor Livia she is amazing. Going over test questions with her really helped me understand the complicatedly written exam questions. After each session I felt more and more prepared to take the test. Thank you Livia for all your help!! read more

I took the salesperson course back in 2014 and I passed the exam. I let my license lapse. I took the salesperson course again in 2020 and just passed the exam again. They have great teachers and staff. Roxanne is the best! read more

Very affordable and the process is very easy to follow. The recommended 10-week time frame to completion is within reach of anyone willing to put in the hours. Every week, they hold on-site lectures that go over the material of the accompanying classes. There are a total of 10 lectures that cycle through every 10 weeks, meaning you can enroll at any time within the cycle! The staff is friendly and while they do advertise their other educational products/programs, there was never pressure to buy them. Something that stood out to me was the continued correspondence after completing the course work. I was in continuous communication with Roxanne, she updated me on every part of the process up to passing the state exam and then some. And every time I had a question, she would respond extremely fast. While you can definitely keep track yourself, this was an unexpected, but welcomed, benefit. If you want to knock out your course work in a timely manner and have a reliable resource during your licensure process, Nationwide Real Estate Schools is great option. read more

Lisa and Hans are wonderful!!! Everyone gets involved in the classroom discussions which makes it easy to understand. Hans will introduce an agent to speak before the studying beginnings. They talk about their experience and give tips on how to succeed. I really enjoyed hearing their stories as it was very motivating. Highly recommend this school! read more

My brother bought me the groupon deal for this pre-licensing real estate courses at Nationwide Real Estate School and I couldn't thank him enough. The courses here are informative and are tailored to prepare you for the state exam. The schedules and locations for the courses are flexible and convenient. I was able to attend each lecture at the Long Beach location every Wednesday at 6pm after work. If you missed a lecture at your regular location you are welcome to attend any other location during that week. The courses are taught in a cycle schedule meaning each week all locations will be teaching the same lecture and you can start anytime. It's a 12 weeks long course but I completed it in 11 weeks. You have the freedom to learn at your own pace. Stephon was my instructor. He is a great instructor. He's entertaining and informative. The staffs here are great. Upon completion of the courses Griselda and Shannon helped me with my exam application. They made the process very simple. I was given 16 practice exams to study before the state exam. These exams are the perfect study guide. I passed on the first try. If you want to pass you must study and study. Good luck! read more

The 5 stars are well deserved. I went to school in Hollywood and I am more than satisfied. Everybody there is very friendly and supportive. Teachers are great , books and materials very useful. A specal thanks also to Lauren and Griselda for been too kind and helpful. I am so glad I attended Nationwide school it was one of the best choices I ever done. I highly recommend to everyone. read more

I took my CA Real Estate licensing classes here and was very pleased with the courses. They allowed me the freedom to study on my own time when I needed to and to attend the classes when I needed more mentoring on certain topics in the course. Wish I got to keep the books though. Great Pricing! read more

I gave this school 5 stars simply because of how amazing Greselda is!!! She's the oxygen to the breathing body of this company. I took all my courses there and all my classes and have failed 4 times until passing on my 5th. Simply because I wasn't studying as hard as I should've. She always remembered me even if I only saw her twice or so, she emailed to follow up with me, called me to follow up and congratulated when found out I passed. Also she put the effort to find a copy of my finger print live scan that I have lost somewhere so I could send it up to get my license. Thanks for everything Greselda you're definitely a one of a kind! read more

Anybody who wants to take real estate classes, I would recommend Nationwide real estate school. I attended the classes here and passed the state exam since the 1st try. Don is really gifted teacher. I took crash course with him too. I love his teaching. Griselda is really helpful with everything. Stefan is sweet. Everybody here is so friendly. I love going to class every week. Great school! read more

Great School, Great Instruction. The real estate exam can be intimidating for first timers. Thanks to Nationwide I passed my exam the first time around. The administrative staff was very supportive. Be sure to catch them on Groupon. Tip: Sign up on Groupon. Start classes immediately. Don't wait 6 months like I did. Best wishes! read more

I've been to a couple RE classes from different companies but Nationwide offers the most in providing comprehensive term materials; books, homework, practice tests and more are all provided to help you pass the CA state exam. I Passed! What puts the icing on the cake is the flexibility of the classes. Each week, all locations have the same class, so if you miss a class in Long Beach, for example, you can take the same class in Buena Park on a different day. There are other locations but those are the two that I attended. Don and Griselda went above and beyond to help me pass my state exam! The classes are a bit odd in the beginning, to be honest, because Don has a particular way of teaching, which makes the 2 hour classes very interesting. If he makes a mistake, just tell him, "you're fired." Make sure you go to ALL of the classes, make your money's worth, y'know what I'm sayin? You will definitely learn a lot and if your head doesn't hurt at the end of the class, you must have come in late. Bring, BRing, BRING Coffee to class!! - you're welcome ;) Everything you need is provided to help you pass the CA RE exam but don't expect the school to hold your hand all the time. Putting aside a huge chunk of time each week to study is my only suggestion. Study, study, study and have your ducks in a row! Good luck! read more

Great school! I totally recommend it! Don is a wonderful instructor and super informative!!! Worth every penny!

I took all my classes here and it was extremely helpful and informative! I do have to say, I tried taking the exam 4 times and got 69% (you need a 70% to pass). I finally took the crash course and Lovell was the instructor he was AMAZING. After the crash course I passed and now have my license! read more

Don is an excellent instructor! Informative, fun and professional. Unlike most real estate schools that are only online, they have a superb classroom setting one evening a week. I just completed the real estate course and with Don's guidance and Griselda's assistance (his wonderful assistant) submitting all the paperwork and walking me through the process, I was able to pass the state exam on the first try read more

I am just amazed with this institute from day one. The staff is welcoming and incredibly kind to everyone. I attended my 12-week course in Mid-City, instructed by James, and I have always looked forward to making the drive through rush hour to be there. Chris was a tremendous help with new enrolling students while assisting the instructor to keep the lecture flow smoothly. James' technique with teaching is quite remarkable. I am very particular when it comes to instructors who make a big impact getting the knowledge they want to deliver to students and make them understand, and he is one to look out for. His sense of humor helped me remember information needed to pass the exam and I am grateful to have his presence to be taught by him. I highly recommend the crash course that they offer. I passed the exam with flying colors. My first attempt and all because of the information that was given in two days. In order to pass the exam, you MUST study. Licensed agents have told me that all I needed to do was pass the exam and get my license. However, I look beyond just earning my license because I find it a long lasting career. Knowledge is power and it will take you very far. With a simple click on Groupon, selecting Nationwide Real Estate Executives in comparison to other institutes, was the best decision I've ever made. My overall experience with this institute was fantastic and life changing! read more

It's a great school. I have learned so much from the instructor. Everyone is really helpful there.

I took my Real Estate course here and I loved it. The classroom is great and Don is an awesome teacher! Griselda, the school administrator, is great! She is very organized and always had my books and tests ready. I passed the test on my first try and I believe that NWREE is responsible for that because they taught me everything I need to know in order to pass. They really provide 'No Gimmicks, Just Results" read more

I echo everyone's comments, especially those about Griselda Negrete. She truly motivated me to complete the course and remembers all of the students in the school! The school will take care of you and prepare you well for the exam! read more

The school and staff here are AMAZING! Classes go very smooth because they teach the material very good and they also incorporate real life examples which help you understand when you read those huge books! After this class I was able to understand and learn... I also took the crash course they offer and was definitely a plus! I was able to pass the exam on my first try! So if you want to pass take this classes! When I tried contacting them they were always available and ready to help so if you have any questions I would definitely say email them or call them and you will have an answer right away! And their prices are very affordable! read more

I bought their class on Living Social. It's part correspondence course and part live training. The classes were very informative and they teach you enough to pass the exam the first time around. The administrative staff is very friendly and all three instructors are great--they each have a unique way of teaching and they give you a lot of tidbits on the industry itself. 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

I am so happy I attended the classes here at nationwide! I took the weekly classes along with the crash course and they are outstanding. The teachers are energetic, informative, helpful and are ready and willing to answer any and all questions. The office staff is quick to reply to emails and to answer any calls for questions you may have. They also have other locations you may attend if long beach is not close to you or if you miss a day at your regular class location. I recommend especially taking the crash course as this helped me tremendously. read more

I just completed the course and passed the state exam on the first try. Don Sutton, the instructor and Griselda the School manager provided the necessary environment and curriculum to prepare for the exam. Thanks Don and Griselda read more

Great school! I took classes in Hollywood. Mark - our teacher was amazing! I recommend taking a crash course right before the exam. I took the one school offered for only $95 (12 hours). Helped me tremendously. Thank you, Nationwide! read more

I just completed the course and passed the state exam on the first try, thanks to the expertise of Don (instructor) and Griselda (his assistant). The curriculum is perfectly tailored to the questions on the exam, and the real world examples Don provides really help you to understand the concepts. I highly recommend Nationwide over any of those online courses, as the support and preparation you receive is second to none! read more

I don't not recommend this school... I attended this school feeling like I haven't learned anything, all the instructor said to do was try to remember it for the test and that's it because you'll do all your learning once you're actually licensed... I ended up buying the online course so I can study for the state exam, I made sure I got at least 80 percent on each test before moving to the next. After passing all the test I felt confident about passing the state exam. I took the state exam two days ago and received a 68%! I was extremely disappointed because in order to pass you need 70%!... I was so close. With that being said the questions from the online course wasn't even on the state exam!.... maybe like 10 but that's it so I felt that the online class was also a waste of money. Now I have to pay to retake the exam, I feel that I'm just wasting money at this point. read more

Great program! Signed up through Groupon. They provide you with all the study material you will need to pass the exam. The test your preparing for is not easy but if you do your due diligence and study you won't be blindsided by the variety of topics covered on the test. read more

Knowledgeable instructors and staff that will guide you to pass the state exam(thank you Griselda for coordination my application process with the BRE) read more

So glad I attended Nationwide! A special thanks to Lauren and Griselda who were so helpful throughout my time at this school.

fake do not waste your money i have been enrolled over a year!!! every time i try to call to go take my practice test they dont asnwer phone its a rip off... im going to contact the better businesses bureau!!!!! everyone should they completely wasted my time and money!!!! read more

I found Nationwide Real Estate School through groupon. It was a great deal! It was nice because they have different campuses and their classes are on different days of the week. If you can't make it to one location or class you can go to another in the same week. They provided all the learning info, tests, books, and test prep. The best thing about them is they stay with you until the very end and keep you on track. They made applying for the test so much easier. The teachers are all very knowledgeable and include practical real estate tips and tactics; but Don is the Best ! read more

Great class; it helped me pass on my first attempt. Be aware that you need to consider it mostly a self-study program, and read/learn on your own. However, the weekly classes & powerpoints do help focus you on the right things to learn, and keeps you on schedule. read more

This is an exceptional school in a very convenient location. I had no experience in the Real Estate industry except for being a consumer. Don, the instructor, was able to present the lessons in a way that made it easy for a novice like me to understand yet seemingly keep the lessons engaging and entertaining enough for the more experienced students. They provide you with several tools (practice exams, access to recorded lessons etc.) to help you succeed. It is fast-paced so you are afforded the opportunity to learn a lot in a matter of weeks. ***I recently completed the program and was successfully able to pass the CA Real Estate exam on my first attempt***. I highly recommend this school (and they have several locations to choose from:-). read more

Don is a very experienced instructor and truly does take the time to make sure you understand the concepts. He keeps his lectures engaging and brings in guest speakers occasionally. Highly recommend studying all the practice exams prior to the test - that's what got me to pass on my first try. Thank you Don and Griselda. read more

Best real estate school in the area. The staff in there are very kind and helpful. I would strongly recommend this school to anybody looking forward to pass the estate exam the first time. read more

Excellent instruction. The instructors are experienced, knowledgeable, and informative. Students receive an intensive body of knowledge on real estate principles, practice, and finance as well as consistent encouragement. The administrative staff are friendly, efficient, and supportive. I passed the state exam on the first try! Thanks Nationwide! read more

My boyfriend purchased this realistate training for me as a gift, I'm glad he did. The school's hours was very flexible and the instructor Don sutton is not just your ordinary boring dry talking instructor he's very good, he cracks jokes, tell's stories, and gets the crowd involved so your never bored at all. And also his assistant griselda she's good she helps you along the way, she went out of her way to help me when I could not make it to the crash course. She's the best. I was always talking about the school to my boyfriend so he signed up, and he told one of his friends he signed up and also his sister. I always enjoyed looking at nice looking homes, I really enjoy the show property brothers which is my favorite. I passed my test yaaaay! But you have to study, study, study I did I passed I'm so excited to start my career as a realistate agent. But unfortunately Don is no longer an instructor at the school as we all know things come to and end but I'm happy he was my instructor. Thanks Don and griselda. read more
