Reviews and Testimonials


“…Greg was a great instructor. He makes the class fun and keeps you awake especially on those last couple of classes when you’re pulling 3 classes a day so you can get it over with. I’m super excited to start my career as a Real Estate agent thanks to REEDC. I got a deal through LivingSocial which also helped out.”

“This recommendation is for Garry, one of the Property and Casualty Insurance Broker Pre-Licensing course instructors. Our classes were from 6pm-10pm on Tues, Wed and Thurs through July and August. It was hot and we were tired after a full day of work. He kept class interesting and fun and almost my whole class passed the exam the first time. For a licensing course, he really seemed to care about his students and their comprehension of the material as opposed to just drilling the correct answers into us. I wish I had teachers like him when I was still in school.”

“At the time of writing this, I am about 75% done with my classes at REEDC and I am having such a great time that I felt compelled to write a review.

The instructor, Greg Caviness, is very knowledgeable, funny and engaging. When you are there, you genuinely follow the material because it is taught so well by Mr. Caviness. He often gives us great tips (e.g. “underline this”, “there will be 3 questions on your exam from this chapter” and other mental cues to look out for).

I also bought a Groupon like many others. When I was deciding between this school and another offering and identical Groupon deal, this school seemed to really win over it’s students. Let me tell you first hand now that I’m almost done… if you come here, you will not be disappointed.”

“I have just finished my course and exam here. I cannot say enough about this wonderful place! The whole staff is marvelous and Janice is outstanding. She is so passionate and cares so much about the students’ success, both in the classroom and as they begin their careers in the field. There is a great concern and devotion on the part of everyone there that your experience is positive and you are happy with your learning. Most impressive was the incredible effort put towards job placement, recruiting, and real world networking. Greg and the other instructor I learned with were wonderful, and clearly extremely real world savvy, knowledgeable, and passionate.”

“I finished taking my course at Real Estate Education Center with Greg Caviness as my instructor. First off, when you look up the words “real estate” in the dictionary, Mr. Carviness’ face should appear! This man has volumes of knowledge and shares all of it with his students. The staff at the school is super supportive of the students also. I passed both my tests the first time around and felt very confident taking them. I believe that confidence is because of the support and knowledge I received from this school.”

“I took the Property Casualty Insurance course at the Queens location….The course was taught by Garry Smalley, a great instructor who engaged the class and made the whole experience worthwhile. Believe it or not, I remember laughing a few times in the class from some of the stories Garry shared and this is a insurance course dealing with numbers. I just got my license today! Passed on my first try, the course was more then enough if you are willing to study 1-2 hours a few nights a week.”

“This center is great! The only thing is I recommend is for you go only to the weekday daytime teacher, Frank Sadjak. He’s an amazing and extremely knowledgeable teacher. He explains everything so clearly so that anyone can understand it; he answers any questions you have, and on top of it– he gives you great pointers for the real world of real estate that other teachers wouldn’t do. It was a great experience there mainly because of Frank!!”

“What can I say – I am a testament to the proficiency of this RE Licensing school! I sat under the tutelage of Mr. Greg Caviness for the latter part of the 75-hour certification and remain tremendously grateful that I did! He is a true teacher indeed.

In less than a 6 month span, I am now fully licensed, Brokered, and actively selling and buying Real Estate in NYC and surrounding counties such as: Westchester, Dutchess, Putnam, and Rockland County.

The Real Estate industry yields a cornucopia of promise! Reap and learn everything that you must. Great luck to all of you striving through the requisite and good luck on the exam! Kudos.”

“My name is Pearl Davis. I am a student at your school. I have been highly recommending your school to everyone because of the excellent customer service I have received from Iesha. Iesha makes this place so much better. Your school smells very pleasant at all times. I attended your school 17 years ago and it was not as clean and organized as it is now. I had to retake the course because I did not get a chance to take the continuing education, I was planning and going to another school but because of the excellent explanation of your school from Iesha, I signed up right away.”

“I just completed the “Selling Real Estate in Foreclosure-driven Markets” class. As expected Mr. Caviness was excellent. Thanks to him I was able to pass my sales agent DOS exam and I got a 92 on the school exam.”

“Just finished the course, got a job with a firm in NYC through the great job placement program that REEDC has. Firms come in to speak and recruit. Totally a great experience didn’t expect this.” – Jason K. | Real Estate Salesperson Course
“Just finished two weeks of classes with the Real Estate Education Center, I had gotten a coupon for them online, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The teacher, Greg Caviness is very impressive, having been in the field, and is a wealth of knowledge. He always has time to answer my many questions. I do recommend this school. Quick addition, I live in Brooklyn, and work in Manhattan, and have taken some weekend classes in the Brooklyn School with Frank Sajdak, and he is also terrific. They are pretty flexible, if I don’t feel. like coming into NY on weekends, I can go to their Brooklyn office, which works out well for me.” – Susan M | Real Estate Salesperson Course
