Testimonials

I have friends that have done real estate and asked them where they went, and Superior came up more often than anything else.
- Kimberly Christenbury

There is no comparison. Superior is the best real estate school in existance. Maybe I am puffing (wink wink) a bit but they deserve it. You had me at hello. By the way, the support staff is superb as well. You kept me on the straight and narrow. One goal in front of me. Because of all of you I met that goal. And Bill, one of your best decisions was to hire Steve Robinson! I hear the other teachers are equally top notch as well. Now off to a well deserved soak in my hot tub, relaxing for a day before back to serious studying for the State exam- Thank You!
- Andie Smith

Great school that really sets you up for success! I passed the class test and then the state test on my first try thanks to the great instruction I received. Great place to learn and take command of your real estate future!
- Joseph Buell

One word: Unbeatable! After taking a course with JY Monk, I can vouch that Superior truly lives up to its name. The location and facilities are superb and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I will never go anywhere else. Tim Terry and Ben Wirtz are excellent instructors.
- Carl Bower

The nice thing is that it prepared us for what was really important on the exam. Sure enough when I did take the exam I found it to be not nearly as difficult as I might have thought.
