Real Smart created the 5 week concept and work full time to bring you the best course possible. We are a family run business that cares and is dedicated to not just getting you to pass the exam, but to ensure you understand and learn the material as well. Sandy Brown - President
Look at just a few things Real Smart Inc does:
42 - 45 hours of in classroom instruction (there is no way do cover all what you need to learn in any less hours and that's a fact!)
600 page bound workbook the First Class!
Mac Slides so you can "See" what we mean
Free tutoring 30 minutes prior to each class
Online access to "Made made Easy" (Real Smart special pricing for students only)
Real Smart's unique, custom designed & exclusive to Only Real Smart Math Formulas that are so great they are copy written. START 1ST Class!
Instructors that have been teaching for Real Smart for over 8 years each!
We DO NOT HAVE CLASSES THAT START EACH WEEK. WHY? So your class will be calm and create a good learning environment for you. We don't allow new students starting every week in your class. This becomes very disruptive and you become just a number. No, Real Smart students start together and end together as a group, so we can all learn in a more cohesive group.
One of the things we hear from people when they call us is our location may not be close to their home. Understandable. It could make sense to choose another training company based on location. But this is one time that location, location, location, should not be your priority.
If you have the means to travel, you should seriously consider the value of a Real Smart Class. The material, the instructors, the insight to the course and the exam, the exam prep, speakers, online access and so much more, make a Real Smart class second to none!
You are in a professional classroom, lots of leg room, free coffee & cookies and just being able to have the visual aid of seeing great examples of what the instructor is talking about make the world of difference. Check things out carefully.
Ask specific questions like these:
Who does the training?
How long have they been training this course?
Is it one instructor or several throughout the course?
Is there a training workbook giving out the FIRST class or just pieces of paper as you go
What visual aids do you have?
How do you teach?
When do you start the math? How many hours of instruction is there on the math? How is it taught? Are there reviews of the math?
Do you allow students do join anytime?
Do you have tutoring? What happens if I don't understand it?
Do you provide a paper Mock Exam with not just the answers, but all the "how to" shown of the math?
Do you provide and Online Complimentary Mock Exam so we can see if we are ready for the UBC exam?
Do you have an Online Math Course that I can take as well, so I can see the slides over and over again at my leisure?
Do you have a classroom or basement of your home? Are the classroom crowded or do I have room to stretch out with my books?
Are you representing a Real Estate Company and wanting me to go there? Or are you independent and work with all the Top Real Estate or Mortgage Broker firms? What's your motive for running the class? Hoping I will join your class?
Real Smart Inc. is an independent training facility with a 1200 square foot training centre. You are free to choose any Real Estate or Mortgage Brokerage you like! We help you with job placement, but you are free to choose! Our mandate is to get you understanding the material and get you passed onto your new career.
What you just read above, Real Smart offers it all! What are you waiting for..call us!
Are Real Estate Training companies created equal? Absolutely NOT. Do your Homework and I can personally assure you, if you come to Real Smart Inc., it will be the BEST decision you EVER made!
WELCOME.....
! Look at the 3 top questions asked!
(1) How does it all work?
(2) Why Real Smart?
(3) What does it cost?
But before you do, Cort Benson, a former Air Canada Pilot has a few words....
To Everyone thinking of the Real Smart Course:
I had the pleasure to be tutored for my Real Estate license by Sandy Brown of "Real Smart Tutorial Services".
I have been an Airline Captain with Air Canada for 38 years and appreciated the "professionalism" and "attention to detail" Sandy showed me throughout my course .
Sandy; I could not have done as well on my exam if it were not for you. The "tea and cookies", from "the teacher" were something a student would not expect while "in school"!
I would highly recommend Sandy Brown and her "Real Smart Tutorial Services" to anyone!
Sincerely,
Cort Benson,
Formely Captain, Air Canada

1. How does it all work?
UBC - Sauder School of Business offers the Real Estate Trading Services Course through correspondence. As well as the Mortgage Brokers Course.
Meaning you register online (www.sauder.ubc.ca/realestate) pay $875.00 for the Real Estate Trading Services Course or $945.00 for the Sub-Mortgages Course with your credit card and UBC will send all the books to your home in approx 1 weeks time.
Each student is given up to 1 year to complete the required assignments (not that you need one year) and then is eligible to apply to write the final examination. Each assignment is approx. 20 multiple choice questions after each chapter or two. You must pass each assignment by 60% or try again. (for a fee each time).
The Exam is 100 multiple choice questions and is 3 hours long at UBC. You must pass it by 65%. Sounds low, but be careful. This exam is trickier than harder.
English Requirement: Note: You do not have to fulfill the English requirement to start the course, you must have it fulfilled it, in order to apply to write the exam. Check the UBC website or call them (604-822-8444 -0) for specific requirements about the English requirement. UBC requires a Canadian Grade 12 or GED or you can take the LPI (language proficiency index test). This is UBC's requirements, so please check with them.
2. So ....Why Real Smart?
Real Smart is proud to say we are the original creators of the 5 week course concept and are complimented by the others who have followed.
Why are we different? We are doing things right for you...for 10 years now! So......what does this mean to you? This means you will be coming to a company that has a proven track record of successfully passing over 5000 students!! We get you passed and you have fun too!
Real Smart Workbook - You will be provided with a workbook with all the “key” information condensed down, reviews, and quizzes. Plus inside this workbook is the Secret to the Math.. most sought after Calculator Formulas!!! See how by asking yourself the 3 little questions, you can walk yourself through any math question so, so, much easier. You do not have to be good at math. Do not fear it. We are pro's at teaching you this in baby steps and without any intimidation! We start you turning your calculator on together the first class.
Oh, by the way. Real Smart Instructors are trained (extensively the Real Smart system) to teach you the entire course...including the math. So what? So, ask around. Most times you find a Mortgage Brokers is hired to come in and teach you a couple of sessions and then leave. Leaving you frustrated and furious because you have no one to answer any questions. Believe me, you will have questions.
Plus.. in many Real Smart class we have 2 Instructors in class when it comes to the math portion. There to look after your needs!
Are you a visual learner?
Do you like to see it, hear it, and then do it?
That's why Real Smart designed the entire course, even the math on a Big Screen using PowerPoint. Listen to your instructor tell you what you just read in the UBC manual in simple terminology you can now understand as you watch the screen and see first hand great examples. No more watching messy instructor handwriting. Watch your instructor "click" in the formulas. Watch as your instructor builds the formulas as she/he describes what to do. Follow along in your Real Smart Workbook.
Do we pay Real Smart and UBC?
Yes & No. UBC charges their fee for the course material and the exam. It is strictly correspondence. There are no classes to attend. All your work must be self taught, including the Math! So you can take their course on your own, teach yourself, submit your assignments and hope you don't have too many questions or problems. This may be a great way for some. But for most students, we know they like to be in a classroom environment. Plus there is an incredible failure rate with people doing this course on their own, we know, because we get the phone calls to come into class. What we hear over and over again is, Why didn't I just call you and go into your class instead of doing this on my own, it's too tricky!"
We have found people like it if they are put on a schedule to ensure the work is complete. They are looking for and can now have a sounding board, instructors and classmates to help them with their questions in our classes. Someone to email or call and instantly get your questions answered. Instead of being frustrated and spending way too much time on one thing.
Real Smart charges their fee as well to teach you the entire course using their own workbook written in simple English so everyone can understand it. I simply haven't found a way to not pay my instructors...hmmm. Just kidding. Our Instructors are hand picked and personally trained through the entire course; start to finish, back to front. They all have Personality Plus or they are not part of the Real Smart Team….period.
We give you quizzes, tests, getting you used the sneaky questions you will see on the exam, reviews, condensed notes with the key information and the step by step math. And oh, do we have the buzz on the Formulas! Real Smart not only developed and designed the 5 or 7 week concept, but we have created the most simplistic, easy to do, don't have to like math, formulas... that are so good, we went to the expense, time and effort to bring them only to you, by having them copyrighted. Come see why we have the "Secret to the Math" (TM).
The advantage to coming to a class is networking as well. Meet other students face to face and interact with them. You can set up a referral network. Plus you can help each other out after class studying.
You now have an instructor and many classmates to seek help from.
What are we providing for you that you can't do yourself?
Not everyone needs to come to tutorial. But most people want the direction, focus & Instructors to explain what you don't understand. Instructors to clarify things. Classmates to form study groups with. Someone to keep you going, encourage you when you need support. A way to network and form study groups. An outlet that will make you pass the exam and get onto selling Real Estate!
Real Smart President – Sandy Brown stays on top of things by writing the UBC Real Estate Exam every year! (yep, she’s crazy!)
Real Smart is FAMOUS for the Easy Calculator Formulas they have designed and provide each student with all the formulas in a simple way. (We start the calculator the first day of class. You literally learn how to turn the calculator on!)
Real Smart walks you through all 26 chapters in “Simple English” so you can now make sense of each chapter. (this allows you to understand it better, then at home work on your assignments and bring any questions you may have back to class for help!)
Real Smart classes all start together and end together as a group. No new students jumping in and out of classes as we go along. (Creates a more cohesive learning environment. Everyone is on the same page, literally. One student is not just learning the math, while ½ the class is just about finished and the other part of the class is in the middle)
Real Smart provides you with one set Instructor for the class. Not several Instructors for several sessions! We want you to have consistency and have a stable learning environment.
Real Smart also provides 2 Instructors in many of their classes when you work on the calculator each class. So we can provide you with more individual attention.
Real Smart has all each teaching materials on a Fantastic and Entertaining PowerPoint Presentation. Why? So you can listen to the Instructor as well as, see what he/she is saying. So learning the material is visually very effective. Great for the students who likes to hear it and see it too~
Real Smart understands it has been awhile (many, many, years for some) since you have been in a classroom. We understand the fears of the calculator, of learning again. “Am I going to be able to keep up” “How am I going to remember everything” “What if I don’t get it”. That is why we start at the beginning working together in a respectful and a caring environment, making sure you do!
If you choose, you can register in one of the Real Smart classes.
Morning - 9:00 am – 12:00 noon Mon, Wed & Thurs
for 5 weeks
Evening - 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm - for 7 weeks
Please see the HOME page for Class Sections and Dates. Or feel free to call Sandy Brown at 604-313-4878 or 604-597-8925 or Email: realsmart@telus.net anytime.
What do we do once we finish a Real Smart class?
After we have completed all 26 chapters in class, we will be going over:
Exam preparation - How to create a Study Plan
How to prepare and write the UBC exam
Job Preparation -
We provide you with information on Real Estate Companies
We provide you with a list of great questions everyone should ask Real Estate Companies to help in the decision making.
Guest Speakers
We bring in Key Speakers. People in Industry you can also talk to.
Mock Exam
We provide you with a 100 multiple choice exam, just like the Real one to get you prepared for the real exam.
Once you have completed and passed all 20 assignments and have given UBC proof of the English requirement, then you can apply for the exam. Students usually take this time (usually 4 – 6 weeks ) after each class to study and practice the calculator, until they feel confident to go write the UBC exam.
The UBC exam is 100 multiple choice questions in a 3-hour period. This exam is offered 4 times per year and is included in your $875.00 UBC fee. As well, UBC offers students (for an additional fee of $125.00 and once you have met the English requirements and have successfully passed all 20 assignments), the option of writing the exam at UBC on their computer, at UBC. The advantage to you is, there are only a few students writing at one time and you receive your results very quickly. Often that day or the next, as compared to the written exam, which could take up to 4 weeks.
