About Us

Our Story

Approved Real Estate Academy’s Fast Track licensing program combines live class instruction in Orange County with online courses that are California state-approved and meet the required education hours. Exam preparation materials are included to help you succeed on the state exam.

All other real estate licensing companies do ONE thing; help you get a real estate license. However, having a real estate license doesn’t make you money. Approved Real Estate Academy’s advanced FastTrack program teaches you how to get your license AND how to make money with your license in Orange County. In fact, Approved Real Estate Academy FastTrack students often have commission checks waiting for them on the day they receive their real estate license from the State of California Department of Real Estate.

Our Mission

Passed exam on my first try thanks to advice, teaching and learning tools provided by Jim and Tony. I did not have much real estate knowledge or prior experience so ... going to lectures and repeating the practice exams did the trick. Yay! Thanks Jim.
