Summary
If you've ever asked yourself, "What do I need to know about real estate school?"—this episode is for you.
We're joined by Brent Lancaster, owner of Bob Brooks School of Real Estate, to break down everything you need to know before getting your real estate license.
From how long it takes to complete your coursework to what actually helps you pass the test, Brent gives us a behind-the-scenes look at real estate education—and what it does (and doesn't) prepare you for.
Spoiler alert: passing the test is just the beginning.
We're covering:
-How real estate school works (timeline, structure, and cost)
-Online vs. in-person classes and what to expect
-What real estate school actually teaches you
-Why the course is designed to help you pass—not run a business
-Common misconceptions about getting licensed
-What impacts pass rates and test success
-How the real estate market affects school enrollment
-What new agents need to know before choosing a brokerage
Whether you're thinking about getting your license or helping someone else get started, this episode gives you a realistic look at what to expect.
Because getting licensed is easy—building a business is where the real work begins.

Community over competition. 💛
