High pass rates

When you’re looking at a particular North Carolina real estate school, no matter how convincing their marketing materials are, make sure they have the numbers to back it up. Superior has one of the highest pass rates in the state. Plus, we’ve helped more new brokers pass the North Carolina real estate licensing exam than any other school in North Carolina.

Good reputation among brokers

A solid reputation is another important quality to look for in a North Carolina real estate school. Make sure you choose a school that’s trusted by brokers who’ve already been through the licensing process. Once you’ve narrowed your choices down to a few schools, check out their reputations. Read online reviews, find out if they’ve earned any awards or distinctions, and, if possible, talk to some alumni about their experience.
