Some of the Valley’s most successful agents call John Hall & Associates home, and a lot of them started their real estate career with us.

Regardless of which real estate agency you choose, step one is most definitely getting an AZ real estate license.  This process begins at a real estate school, not a real estate brokerage.  (Let us know if you are interested in discounted tuition to some of the top real estate schools here locally.)  Once you’ve completed the state required 90 hours of real estate school curriculum and passed the state and national real estate exams, you’re ready for hire by a brokerage.

ProStart Training for New Real Estate Agents

ProStart is just what the name suggests – a way to get a Professional Start to your real estate business.  Our ProStart New Agent Training Program includes 2 weeks of classroom training split into staying legal skills and sales skills followed by Professional Mentoring.

Classroom Training

Marge Lindsay is one of Arizona’s top real estate trainers.  Not only does she teach Continuing Education classes for the Phoenix Association of REALTORS® and the AZ School of Real Estate and Business, but she’s a Graduate REALTOR® Institute (GRI) instructor as well.  In between teaching existing agents how to improve their businesses, she teaches new agents how to effectively build a business from the ground up.

Lindsay is the the primary instructor for the classroom portion of ProStart.  The main focus is generating business and completing transactions with strategies and techniques on avoiding legal trouble.  After ProStart students complete the REALTOR® fundamentals, the real world training begins.

Mentors for New REALTORS®

New real estate agents exit the classroom and enter the arms (not literally, but close) of their professional mentors.  Mentors are practicing REALTORS® that are hand selected to help guide and motivate new agents, while being a great resource for learning the nuances of this business.
