Thank you for the thorough and entertaining instruction. Your compassion and interest in each and every student is amazing! It was reassuring to sit in on additional classes and use your computers — even after I passed the course. I also appreciated the practice tests online. You provide everything a person could possible need to be successful. As a retired school teacher, I give your course an A+.

I just wanted to take the time to thank you. Only 3 months into real estate and I had my first closing today. Would not be possible without you! Thank you so much! Wishing you all the best!

Passed my state and national exams this month. Would not have been possible without the in-person classroom and instructors. Dan & Andrew, with each their own style of teaching, kept it interesting and sometimes comical. Having the study lab available is a priceless resource to coordinate with classroom and online course.

What a comfort it is to know that the next generation of Bakers is continuing the Burk Baker tradition in teaching real estate continuing education courses. I have enjoyed having classes with Anna and Andrew, and also Dan Smith. All in all, you are carrying on the excellent legacy of information that we became accustomed to through Burk.

Burk Baker School of Real Estate provided the materials and guidance I needed to pass both the National and Louisiana real estate exams on my first attempt (April 2024). With knowledgeable and caring instructors, a thorough curriculum and excellent support the school is top notch. For anyone looking to start their real estate career, I highly recommend Burk Baker School.

“I wanted to let you know that I passed both portions of the commission exam. If it were not for the preparation provided by you, I would not have succeeded so well. My study habits definitely improved! Thanks again.”
