Diane Flannigan, Director of Career Development, has put together an inspiring series of real estate education classes that will rock your world – and hopefully your business!  The diverse training schedule has been created in the Back to School spirit.  Only this school is way better than regular school because there are no boring pre-requisites before getting to the good classes.  We’re going to start with dessert!

• Your broker, Jim Sexton, is going to be teaching Sell by the Numbers.  He’s going to work through the Cromford Reports and teach you how to use the available statistics effectively.

• Jason Smith (American Mortgage Specialists) and Alex Jovicich (John Hall Agent) are going to share with you how to get your clients the revitalization money that is available for homebuyers right here in our local Phoenix neighborhoods.

• Mark Taylor (Originator of the Certified Distressed Property Specialist designation) is going to teach the ins and outs of selling and listing distressed property without going broker or getting sued! (Lawyer’s Title Insurance has sponsored this class.)

• And then there are the technology classes that I (Phil Sexton) will be teaching.  I’m really no good at talking about myself.  I can’t tell you they are _____, because obviously I’m biased. But if you find the information I share on our blog and office meetings informative, you’ll enjoy these classes.  I’m going to drill down into more specifics and show you how to do the things I talk about.  My classes will be covering a variety of topics including getting more website traffic, using Facebook effectively, and the technical side of using the Cromford Reports.

So get your calendars out, decide which of these classes you want to attend (or pick D – all of the above) and get ready to rock this year with more closed business than you know what to do with.  If all goes as planned you may want Diane to teach a class on building a team just to handle the increased workload!
