Tim & Julie Harris Real Estate University Short Sale Program

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Friends & Neighbors Real Estate RB14036506

I posted a message yesterday asking for feedback from other agents who may have known about Tim and Julie Harris and their Harris Real Estate University.  I have received 3 posts from Tim, who challenged me to check out the University website.  Well I did.  I looked everywhere and I also checked out his blog, as he suggested.  My final conclusion is.  It is definately to good to be true!   And I mean that in a positive way!  While I didn't find alot of feedback from outside sources I did enroll myself to listen to some of their "free" teleseminars.  One of their inverviews was with one of the top agents in the Prudential Network, Gregg Neuman in San Diego.  The interview I listened to was almost an hour long, packed with information that could only help me if I followed his footsteps.  Then it dawned on me, why wou ld someone so interested in helping REALTORS build their business also not be on the up and up? That did it for me.  I am sold.  I do not have the money to sign up today, but my next commission check is going to them!  I don't think I can afford to NOT go with their program!  And we paid a similiar amount of money last year for a 6 week program with another big name.  It just means I don't have to come up with all the money at once!  Thanks for making it easier on us!

What had me skeptical was 1) the only things being said about them were said by them., 2) the $97 monthly fee, and 3) the latest and greatest can only be found thru them.I l  earned a couple of things, yes it is okay to toot your own horn, how else will people know? Especially when it is true, and, I didn't know I was so skeptical!  I'm glad to learn of it so I can correct it, I see it as a personality default, and I don't want one!  So, thanks Tim for stopping by, I am on Julie's call log for Monday and I am looking forward to it!  Soon, I will be one of the students tooting your horn!  I am not a student right now and I am already tooting your horn!

Call me directly if you like I love Tim and Julie Harris and Harris University. What I like best is the format of on going active learning. The information / trainings current and real life. I currently do 5 /6 short sale closings a month. Could I do it with out Tim and Julie maybe .. The key is I know what's going on in the Short Sale World weekly and have a network of Great agents to help me over the hard spots.

What Class are you thinking of taking... I had a chance to meet all the coaches all seem VERY knowledgeable.

PS I am not getting paid for this endorsement :)

Eric:

I'm going to take the short sale class. Some agents in my market are claiming to be experts and have closed 10 short sales.  I can do better than that!  Your name is the only one I have seen even on their blogs that have left feedback.  I don't know why that is but it appeared strange to me, until I heard the interview with Gregg Neuman.  I am no longer skeptical, now I am waiting on the funds.  I have several closings coming up in the next week or two, so I will be joiniing soon.  I am real excited about it.  But tell me, I heard a teleconference that said they are negotiating with a firm to supply exclusive lists to HREU members of pre-foreclosures.  And the interview was last year sometime, is that available now?  How long did it take you to use their formula to start listing short sale properties?  I have been involved with 5 in the last 8 months but I know there are many many more out there.  As a matter of fact I can hardly wait for the next issue of our local homes and lifestyle magazine to come out (next week) because almost a half page of my ad is dedicated to short sales.  I look forward to your response!  And thanks for stopping by to chat...

Hi Evelyn,

Since you first posted on joining Harris Real Estate University, have you done it and would you recommend it?  Was it everything you thought it would be?

This is embarassing John, I have not joined up.  After my free coaching call I have done what Tim recommended and have been to busy to add anything to my schedule.  Do I believe it would be worth it to join???? ABSOLUTELY!  I keep saying I am going to sign up when I do this or that and I still have intentions of doing so.  I have two people in real estate school that are joining up with me and one of them will be my liscensed assistant (I hope), the other an agent.  Hopefully after I get them up to par I can join and learn more.  I have every intentions of signing up.  I just don't have time to right now...

Colleen!  I knew it!  I knew it!  I knew it!  I just knew the course would be great.  One of these days...but to tell you the truth I am slammed with work.  I have 28 listings and 11 pendings and I have no time for anything but working! Congratulations on joining!  Please update me once in a while so others can see!

The University definitely works. From the information I learned, I was able to get my first REO listing in 2 months and close my first Short sale listing. What they teach is exactly on the mark. When I used The scripts they gave, I got results. The short sale package was so complete that the bank sent me an approval in a week. I called to check on it and the next day an approval arrived in my fax.

Joining is well worth the 97,00 a month.

Hi Evelyn,

Just wondering if you ever signed up for the Harris Real Estate course..I was thinking of signing up because I want to jump on the REO side of real estate.  Ive taken a course from realestateeducate.com but I feel its a sham.  I paid $500.00 for it and never heard back from ANYONE.

 

Thanks,

Ruben Barba

Nope, I have not joined up, but if I had the time and I wanted to get into REO's I would be educated by Tim & Julie.  They are the top of the line, in my opinion.
