Mississippi Real Estate Market Looking Up...
Two recent articles ("Bright Spots in Real Estate" and "Hopeful Signs in Sale of Homes") from the Sun Herald, the Mississippi Gulf Coast’s premier newspaper, indicate that the market is beginning to change for the better. A quote from a local Realtor, “I’m very positive about 2009 and that’s not just realtor speak”. Many local brokers echo this positive rhetoric as well. Our own increase in class size is another indication that things are headed “back to normal”, many wanting a piece of the action as the market improves.
National figures demonstrate home sales in 2009 are expected to produce an additional 6.6 per cent increase, thus making 2009 one of the strongest years in history with an estimated 5.7 million transactions. New home sales are projected to boost sales to more than 600,000 transactions.
I realize New York City is a long way from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, but according to a February 15th New York Times article (The Optimists' Club 2/15/2009) on real estate, a major Real Estate Training Institute has been conducting marathon training sessions for new salespersons, who want to get in on the ground floor when the stimulus package and other financial help for the housing industry kicks in.
Let us remember, Real Estate is a local business and the Mississippi market is sure to be one of the first to rebound. So, if you are wondering whether or not to jump in and get your real estate license, now may be just the right time to do it. There is plenty of room for new and energetic realtors, especially if you take the job seriously and are willing to put the time and effort in to performing the task. |

A Student Review from Yahoo Local |
| 
I attended RETI classes and was amazed just how much information could be passed along in a classroom setting - these people know their business. All the instructors were well versed and answered all questions asked by the participants. We were blessed that Dr Hasbrouck worked a couple of the classes - what a first-class man he is, and so knowledgeable! (humorous too!)
I would not hesitate to recommend these courses to everyone interested in the real estate business, it was money well spent! Excellent!! |

Our students are...
- the most important people. Without our students there
would be no need for RETI.
- not cold enrollment statistics but
flesh and blood human beings with feelings, goals and emotions
like our own.
- not people to be tolerated so that we can do our thing.
They are our thing.
- not dependent upon us. Rather, we are dependent upon them.
- not an interruption of our work, but the purpose of it.
We are not doing our students a favor by serving them. They
are doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to do so.
