K. Opoku - Columbia, SC Thursday, February 04, 2010
Frankie’s class is beyond enjoyable! He uses plenty of real world examples when going over the course material to assist in studying. It is very nice to attend a class in which the teacher is a successful Realtor himself. Thank You!

I have never taken a course that has been as fun, informational, and useful as this class has been. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this school to anyone looking for a new career in real estate.
Rachel - Walhalla, SC Sunday, November 01, 2009
Thanks again for three great weeks of training. I wish everyone that sold real estate took your classes then I am sure SC would view their realtors in a different light. In case anyone out there is considering going to school for real estate then you would make the best choice to go to Real Estate School for Success! Even students from other schools that came here for Final Sales wished they had got their training from Frankie! Frankie is the Man when it comes to teaching real estate!!

Pam - Sumter, SC Thursday, April 09, 2009
Oh my gosh….I absolutely loved this class. As a young person starting a new career I’ve learned so much and feel like I have the upper hand when I begin practicing. There are a few choices, but im glad I chose Frankie and The Real Estate School for Success!!
Kalendra - Columbia, SC Thursday, March 19, 2009
My only regret is that I didn’t come to the Real Estate School for Success to do my initial 60 hours. My career would have been jump started much sooner had I been give the practical and useful information I received during my short tenure with Frankie. He was informative, but made class enjoyable as well. Thank you!
Katrina - Sumter, SC Sunday, February 15, 2009
Eye opening! Course was put in very relatable terms. Very interesting, valuable information that will no doubt facilitate my real estate career, but also just increase my knowledge and awareness of the real estate industry as a whole.
Ansley - Columbia, SC Sunday, February 15, 2009
Frankie is an obvious ethical man and agent and I will take a lot away from his teaching. It’s nice to have someone hold you so accountable to ethics.
Holly - West Columbia, SC Thursday, February 12, 2009
I am excited about launching my career as a real estate agent because of the thorough training I have received as a student of the Real Estate School for Success. I feel confident and will be an asset to my future broker.

I have completed my First Year Sales and Final Sales at the Real Estate School for Success. The courses and instructors are very knowledgeable. I use everything I learn to build my career. This is the best Real Estate School in South Carolina.
Malika - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 30, 2008
This class gave me insights into the business I may not have otherwise obtained. The instructor was easily understood and enjoyable to listen to.
Thalia - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 30, 2008
I have taken about 10 – 12 different seminars on real estate and this class is hands down, the very best. It was suggested that Final Sales be taken as soon after first year sales and because of that I will come out of the gate running, as I took the final sales class the last two weekends of my first year sales class. Awesome job to everyone at the Real Estate School for Success.
Michael - West Columbia, SC Thursday, October 09, 2008
I have been referred to the Real Estate School for Success by a friend. I am very happy that I took that advice and joined the school. I learned so many valuable things and the best part was the delivery. Frankie is the MAN…period!
Larissa - Cayce, SC Thursday, October 09, 2008

Real Estate School for Success is second to none! The instructor provided adequate examples for all of the material and did an amazing job at putting the material into perspective. I plan and look forward to completing all of my continuing education courses here.
Tyler - Blythewood, SC Thursday, August 14, 2008
I have been to a lot of seminars, a lot of classes and even been involved in coaching, but to take this class for $375 and to learn all the information that I did was incredible. $375 dollars is an incredible value for the well organized and written text book, and for the length of the course. Frankie Griffin is an awesome instructor and I would highly recommend him. I have been a full time Real Estate Instructor for 3 years and have not taken a course and well rounded as this PRE-SALES course in a long time. Thanks guys, and I plan on using all my new knowledge to hopefully excel my investing and Real Estate Agent career!
Jesse - Irmo, SC Sunday, June 15, 2008
I highly recommend the First Year Sales course. I not only feel well prepared for the state exam, I feel like I have an advantage over other new agents because of the practical tops we were given about real world situations.
Kiri - Lexington, SC Thursday, June 12, 2008
This class has effectively and efficiently taught me a great understanding of the laws of Real Estate in South Carolina. Frankie was just a library of information, happy to help each student to the best of his ability.
Matthew - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 12, 2008
This school is like going out to eat; no one wants to settle for a burger and fries when they can have lobster and steak. So why settle for any other education when you have the opportunity to attend the Real Estate School for Success.
Lucas - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 12, 2008
This class taught me a wealth of knowledge not only in getting a career started in the industry but other knowledge pertaining to home buying, selling and investment opportunities. I will recommend this school to anyone looking to further their education in any of these areas.
Claudine - Columbia, SC Sunday, April 13, 2008
I would defiantly recommend this school to anyone wanting to become involved in real estate. The classes are entertaining, well informing, instructed extremely well. There would be no other school for me!
Amy - Columbia, SC Thursday, April 03, 2008
The pleasure in this course was enormous. It is the best course that I have taken of any kind period. Mr. Griffin is truly a knowledgably individual in his field and his teaching was gratifying. Thank you so very much.
Joe - Florence, SC Thursday, April 03, 2008
I enrolled with this school on the many recommendations of agents in the field. There is no doubt in my mind that it was the best way to get started in real estate. Frankie Griffin was thorough, entertaining and truly dedicated to the success of his students. I will absolutely return for continuing education.
Lisa - Hopkins, SC Thursday, April 03, 2008
I choose this school because of the convenience of the many time and date offerings. Although I am traveling from another city, I will be back for Final Sales at the Real Estate School for Success because of the great content and delivery they provide.
Dan - Greenville, SC Thursday, April 03, 2008
This is by far the best class I have ever been to in my eighteen years of practicing Real Estate. The teacher kept my attention and if I had to leave the class at the end of the first day and not return I would have been extremely satisfied and the money I spent was well worth it.
Leonard - Boiling Springs Thursday, March 20, 2008
Thank you for having such a great class. It was truly enjoyable. The information that I received this week was so valuable. I’ve discovered the “right way” to handle myself as well as my future transactions.

Brooke - Florence, SC Sunday, February 03, 2008
Frankie is a great instructor who not only can teach the course material, but makes you understand through sharing his personal experience which makes the material more interesting.
Shanel - Columbia, SC Thursday, January 24, 2008
This course was wonderful. I now have a better understanding of contracts and laws as it pertains to my profession. I will recommend that every person interested in entering real estate to take their training her at the Real Estate School for Success.
Christopher - Columbia, SC Thursday, January 24, 2008
Ron, I wanted to drop a quick note to tell you that I enjoyed taking the Broker A and B classes. You did an excellent job of teaching the material and giving real life examples to better illustrate all the definitions. You are a great asset to the Real Estate School for Success.Thank you again for your time and effort. Please let me know if I can ever be of assistance.
David - Columbia, SC Thursday, January 17, 2008
Frankie’s suggestion to take this course immediately following FYS and prior to the state exam was excellent advice. I feel I know the material in much more depth and have a better comprehension of many of the concepts. Learning has never been more fun! Frankie Made the material entertaining and therefore more easily remembered.
Amanda - Columbia, SC Thursday, December 20, 2007
The entire experience from start to finish was great. Enrolling online was easy, the website was informative and user friendly. The facilities were east to find. Frankie did an amazing job as an instructor. His knowledge and experience in the real estate industry made learning the material a lot easier.
Nancy - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 25, 2007
Invaluable insight into the legal aspects of real estate as well as the practical. Great emphasis placed on integrity and “Raising the Bar” for agents entering the real estate profession. I would recommend the course to anyone contemplating a real estate career.
Debbie - Camden, SC Thursday, October 25, 2007
I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Griffin and his experience in the real estate field. He did a wonderful job presenting the information in an environment using his own experience. The manner of Mr. Griffin’s instruction made the class enjoyable but most importantly helped me commit important facts to memory
Charleone - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 25, 2007
I will recommend this school to others who are interested in the Real Estate field. The instructors presented the info in an easy to understand and rememberable format. This course is only the beginning of a long relationship I intend to have with this school. Thanks Frankie!
Cassandra - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 25, 2007
Everything was very professional and over exceeded my expectations. There was never a time a question was not answered or explained, no matter what it took. I definitely would use this school again.
Sharon - Charlotte, NC Thursday, August 30, 2007
When I graduated from USC in Dec 06 with a degree in Real Estate I was not ready to take the state test to get my license. I felt lost and confused! But after completing this course John has helped me prepare for not only the test but the real world of real estate! And when I pass the test and succeed in life later he will be a big part of it! Thanks a lot!!!
Nakia - Columbia, SC Thursday, August 30, 2007
John provided all the necessary information in a clear and informative fashion. His anecdotes and stories provided wonderful information and much needed humor. The course followed the workbook well and coupled with John’s sense of humor, I found this experience to be enjoyable and educational I will recommend this class in the future.
Kerry - Columbia, SC Thursday, August 30, 2007
As a recent college graduate I felt this course was not only beneficial to learning about real estate, but leading a successful professional life as well. Frankie as well as the course provided helpful, useful and enjoyable education on life in real estate. I recommend this course to anyone interested in real estate and I look forward to my continued real estate education courses with the Real Estate School for Success.
Rachel - Columbia, SC Thursday, July 19, 2007
John Kneece was an excellent instructor. His enthusiasm on the subject of real estate was contagious. He was serious about teaching the class, yet added humorous real estate stories to help us remember concepts. He gave us his best every class. I believe I successfully passed the course because he shared his belief in everyone of us that we could do it! I know that Real Estate for Success definitely contributed to my success and dream. I have wanted to be a realtor for many years, and I have your instructor and course to thank for it.
Dianne - Columbia, SC Wednesday, July 11, 2007
I loved my experience in this class, it was actually fun and I couldn’t wait to get here all week. I’ve never in my life had a teacher that made me feel smart and like I could learn anything. But John made that happen. I am so glad I chose this school and was lucky enough to have john as my teacher!
Rebecca - Sumter, SC Thursday, May 17, 2007
Before the class begun I was extremely nervous. Not knowing what to expect. I came into the class like a blank canvas now there is an array of colors. Colors that represent an individual that feels that she can be a top ranking Real Estate agent. John is an asset to this school. His compassion, humor and experience exceeded my level of expectations for this class. If I had to do this all over again, I would not change a thing. Thank you John for dedication and commitment in producing trained agents. My life will never be as it was!
Sylinda - Columbia, SC Thursday, May 17, 2007
The class was great; I couldn’t imagine having a different instructor. He was on top of everything. The class went beyond what I thought it would and that was also great. I will enroll in another class at the Real Estate School for Success.
Kellie - Lexington, SC Thursday, May 17, 2007
The Real Estate School for Success has truly been a pleasure and not a drag for attending pre-licensing courses. In the case of most schools it is hard to pay attention and I sometimes don’t grasp the material on the first go around, but with The Real Estate School for Success and my instructor Mr. John Kneece I could not have asked for a better learning environment. The school has provided me with the knowledge I need to move my career in the real estate business forward. The tools that I took away from real life experiences the Mr. Kneece shared were absolutely helpful. The class assessment prepared me for the state exam so much that I passed both portions of the state and general my very first time. Also, the convenient location of the Columbia Real Estate School for Success allowed me to take the course in the very same building as the state and general tests, but the best part was being so close to LLR. Thank you and I highly recommend the Real Estate School for Success!
Katelyn - Chapin, SC Wednesday, May 09, 2007
I have truly enjoyed being here and learning the basics of the Real Estate class. Your class was so much fun! The way you played real life situations into learning experiences will stay with me longer than the book reading portion of the class. You really are not just a teacher but a professional at what you do and for that I will have hard shoes to follow. Thanks for everything! I enjoyed your class.
Chris - Bishopville, SC Sunday, May 06, 2007
I was very impressed with Frankie’s abilities to make real life applications to the concepts being taught. This really helped me, someone who knew nothing about real estate, understand and grow as a learner. When it came around to test time, I knew the information; I didn’t have to memorize it, which I believe will help me be a better agent.
Mary - Columbia, SC Sunday, May 06, 2007
Frankie was great! He made the classroom as exciting as he could and was great at giving examples. I felt extremely comfortable with him and knew he was always there to clarify or help with any questions or concerns.
Nathan - Columbia, SC Sunday, May 06, 2007
Bill is an excellent teacher; he puts the course in real world perspective and thoroughly answers any and all questions. He makes the class both informative and entertaining. A true asset to my education, professional development, and your school.
Thomas - Irmo, SC Thursday, May 03, 2007
Frankie Griffin’s teaching style made this course enjoyable and the information presented east to understand. Mr. Griffin’s relaxed, pleasant and caring demeanor put me at ease and open to his instruction. Our class was encouraged to ask questions, offer different scenarios, and participate in ways that would help us as students get the best assistance. I will definitely continue to enroll in the Real Estate School for Success for MCE courses. I feel empowered to embark on my new career as a Real Estate Agent.
Tasha - Columbia, SC Thursday, March 08, 2007
I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Mr. Griffin has a wealth of knowledge. He is an excellent instructor. He is well versed and was able to reach all students on all levels. I will strongly recommend this class to people that are interested in Real Estate.
Diana - Kershaw, SC Sunday, March 04, 2007
Penny did a very good job making the materials stick, sink in. Sometimes it’s hard for me to “get it” just by reading it or someone else reading it. Penny gave examples, stories and situations that related to the subject material that really helped me “get it”. She made it fun and not boring!
Annette - Columbia, SC Sunday, February 11, 2007
I was trained in my basic course at another school and would rate the Real Estate School for Success very well. Superior with materials and instruction. Thank you for a memorable experience.
Glen - Lexington, SC Sunday, February 11, 2007
The instructor was very knowledgeable and gave examples to help us apply what we were learning. I am leaving with a wealth of knowledge.
Angela - Columbia, SC Saturday, February 10, 2007
John kept the course interesting and easy to follow because of his knowledge and because of his personality. Great instructor! Very light hearted and amusing, but still got the point across.
Mike - Columbia, SC Thursday, February 08, 2007
Even when I didn’t want to come I knew it would be great when I got here. I was never bored and the time flew by. I don’t think there is much you can improve upon. It was wonderful to have an instructor that is obviously happy and excite about what he does.
LouAnn - Lexington, SC Thursday, February 08, 2007
Frankie’s passion for practicing real estate with professionalism and good ethics is motivating and inspiring. It is a joy being around someone who so obviously enjoys what he does!
Ray - Fort Mill, SC Sunday, January 28, 2007
The instructor was extremely knowledgeable on the subject and made the laws of real estate very easy to understand. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for a career in real estate.
Rashida - Irmo, SC Sunday, January 28, 2007
Frankie is an excellent instructor. His knowledge and experience allow students to gain much more than text book experience. The class was a joyful experience.
Latonya - Columbia, SC Thursday, January 18, 2007
One of the most informative and enjoyable courses! The instructor was knowledgeable, gave practical advice, and was personable. My overall experience was wonderful, and I’d definitely recommend this school to others.

Julie - Columbia, SC Thursday, November 16, 2006
I have to say coming into this I was expecting a boring experience, but it turned out to be the total opposite. Frankie was great. He has a very entertaining and informative way of teaching. I do look forward to my Final Sales course at the Real Estate School for Success.
Janeen - Columbia, SC Thursday, November 16, 2006
Frankie is an excellent teacher because of his knowledge and experiences in the field of Real Estate. Even though there was a plethora of information to be learned he made certain that he emphasized the most important concepts for potential real estate agents to represent clients in a knowledgeable and professional manner.
Carolyn - Columbia, SC Thursday, October 26, 2006
Frankie’s stories kept me awake and alert even though I work all day and had to go to class four hours for 3 nights a week. I especially like the real life applications he gave us. I wrote all of this info down and will use a lot of it in my own business. He gave us a lot of good info that was not covered in the book but will help us in our careers and relationships with our clients.
Renee - Chapin, SC Thursday, October 26, 2006
Penny was very informative but not dull. She kept everyone’s attention the whole time. It has been a very long time since I have had an instructor with so much energy.
Kenya - Columbia Monday, October 23, 2006
Frankie is an excellent teacher. He makes it enjoyable to be in a classroom for a long time. I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a real estate school.
Christen - Cayce, SC Thursday, September 14, 2006
Penny is and excellent instructor. She makes the material come “alive” with practical examples, clear explanations and appropriate humor. I would definitely use the Real Estate School for Success again!
Lisa - Tega Cay, SC Thursday, September 14, 2006
Penny was very professional and personable. She was kind, patient and allowed each of us the opportunity to ask questions and express ourselves on some sensitive issues. She is an asset to your organization and it has been my sincerely pleasure taking this course. Thank you Penny!
Cheryl - Columbia, SC Thursday, September 14, 2006
After spending two weeks with Frankie Griffin who did a wonderful job I truly was dreading a new instructor. Both Frankie and Penny have been excellent instructors as well as wonderful individuals. I have been extremely happy taking my classes with the Real Estate School for Success since I have heard so many stories from students who have attended other schools and how unhappy many of them have been with instructors. You will see me in future training sessions.
Virginia - Chapin, SC Thursday, September 14, 2006
I thoroughly enjoyed taking this class with instructor Frankie. I thought he made the class very interesting by providing his own personal success stories as well as not so successful stories he has had in real estate. He has a lot of knowledge and expertise that he shares with us in class. I definitely would take another class offered by him. I thought the book as well was informative.
Kookie - Irmo, SC Friday, September 08, 2006
I enjoyed the openness of the instruction-Being able to ask questions and being allowed to give examples enhanced the overall experience and added much value to the time spent with class.
John - Orangeburg, SC Thursday, August 24, 2006
I thought the material taught was conveyed in a manner that provided for optimum retention. The course was engaging and I enjoyed coming to class each day. I would highly recommend the school and Frankie Griffin to anyone with any interest in Real Estate. I couldn’t have been more pleased.
Catie - Aiken, SC Thursday, August 10, 2006
Penny Benton taught with enthusiasm and humor but with no nonsense. She covered the subject material thoroughly. I highly recommend the Real Estate School for Success to anyone who wants to learn the business.
Richard - Aiken, SC Sunday, July 30, 2006
Penny is not only knowledgeable-she excites you and makes you want to really get out there and sell.
Anne - Chapin, SC Sunday, July 30, 2006
Penny did an excellent job conveying all of the course materials. The classes were fun and insightful. I appreciate all of the experienced advice she gave us. I give the course and the entertainment an A+. Theses classes were offered to me at a closer more convenient locations, but I would not take classes anywhere other than the Real Estate School for Success. The classes are information and fun. Thanks!
Sandy - Lake View, SC Thursday, July 27, 2006
Frankie is an excellent instructor. As a social worker I’m required to attend lots of classes and, believe me, I know boring. Frankie is everything but boring. He’s presentation style is effective, entertaining and witty. I thoroughly enjoyed the classes.
Diana - Lexington, SC Thursday, July 27, 2006
My attention was held from the first to the last class. Instructor was upfront with expectations from students. Class was well organized and Frankie’s “stories” were entertaining and educational. Every “story” had a point/lesion to learn from. I am excited about this school and look forward to taking other courses. Thank you for getting me excited about my future career!
Suzanne - Lexington, SC Thursday, July 27, 2006
I will recommend this school and Frankie to everyone. This class has by far been the most informative and inspirational than any class I have ever taken (I graduated with a four year degree.) Thanks Frankie you’re the best.
Amy - Columbia, SC Thursday, July 27, 2006
Frankie did a great job with what could have been tedious, boring material! His stories and examples helped “cement” the concepts in my mind. I would take this course for the knowledge Frankie shares with the class even if I was not going to get my license! The flexibility was a deciding choice in taking the course here- the quality of instruction will bring me back. Thanks, Frankie!
Jill - Holly Hill, SC Thursday, June 29, 2006
The instructors were both excellent. They brought years of experience to the classroom that enhanced the teaching. Although this is indirectly related to the course, I would like to add that Ashley has been very enjoyable on each occasion I had to work with her. You have a gem in her.
Lisa - Columbia, SC Friday, June 23, 2006
I have to admit I was not looking forward to my continuing education classes today, but how was I to know what a difference it would make in my real estate career. I pride myself on my knowledge and reputation in the real estate world and I have to admit your class today was a career changing experience. I learned more useful and practical knowledge in the first hour of the risk management class than I have in any other course I have taken. I thoroughly enjoyed your teaching style and never once looked at my watch. I actually wanted to learn more from you. I cannot believe how much this one class changed the way I will do business in the future and I wanted to personally thank you. The knowledge I acquired today will ensure that I am a better agent more qualified to represent my clients. I am extremely impressed and you will definitely be seeing more of me in your classes. Thank you again Frankie and the Real Estate School for Success!
Andrea - Columbia, SC Friday, June 23, 2006

Stephanie - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 22, 2006
This course exceeded my expectations. I had a fun, loving time while learning important information. Penny is a “natural” teacher. She has “it”.
Arthur - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 22, 2006
Frankie was great. His experience and delivery were excellent. The personal experiences helped us personalize the subject matter. Thanks for a great course. I have had this course in three different states over the years. This was the best!
Richard - Aiken, SC Thursday, June 22, 2006
Dear Mrs. Starnes
I have passed my exam and am very happy about that! I have been impressed with the classes that I have taken with the Real Estate School for Success and would absolutely recommend the school to others.

Thank you Frankie! You are a superb instructor and motivator! What a great way for me to start off my career in Real Estate. I highly recommend this school to anyone who considers price and quality important when shopping for real estate educators.
Kameron - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
Thank God for you Frankie! When I first began this course I knew nothing about Real Estate except that I have bought and sold homes in the past in New York. At first I felt as if Frankie just talked too much. As I was taking my assessment so may of the issues that Frankie talked about came to remembrance and helped me so much. I feel like a success and at my age (50+) that’s a great feeling of accomplishment.
Ascencion - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
Frankie did a wonderful job of not only teaching the important facts but also he gave great examples through shared experiences. That shared knowledge can't be learned from a book.
Jennifer - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
The knowledge of the instructor was far greater than I ever imagined. The ability to deliver real life scenarios was invaluable. A true class act. A man of integrity who incorporates business and personal development in an extremely high manner.
Michael - Blythewood, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
I “fell into” my hospitality career and as I would interview prospective new employees I often heard from them that working in a hotel has always been a dream for them. Although I really enjoy my job, I never had that feeling. Real Estate has always been that dream job for me and after taking this course I feel much more strongly about it. Frankie is not only an educator but also a motivator. He really made me feel as if I can make my dream a reality. Thank you!
Tammy - Lexington, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
This is good stuff right here! I don’t care who you are, you got to like this. Mr. Griffin presented not only the necessary information in an engaging and insightful manner, but pearls of wisdom for the business also. I’m already looking forward to my next class. The Real Estate School real is geared for success!
Stanley - Sumter, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
Frankie is simply a joy! He keeps you so interested and entertained you don’t even realize at first how much are actually learning. I am so glad I chose this school.
Ton - Columbia, SC Thursday, June 15, 2006
Hi Stacey,
I am very happy with all of the knowledge that I gained through the courses I took at your school. Being a former school teacher I tend to judge class instructors and Frankie is as good as they get. He would have made a great college professor. I have spoken to many of my former classmates and we all passed our exam on the first try. I look forward to taking classes with you in the future.
Robert - Lexington, SC Tuesday, June 13, 2006
First I would like to thank Frankie and the Real Estate School for Success. I drove an hour and ten minutes from Ft. Mill each day for 4 weekends and I would do it again. It took me 17 minutes to pass the State Sales portion and 54 minutes to pass the General portion - first time around by taking Frankie’s advice.
Helen - Ft. Mill, SC Thursday, June 08, 2006
Having taken another course at a different company, I was really surprised at how different they were. The instructors make all the difference! I would definitely recommend this school to anyone. Penny is a wonderful instructor who made something which could be boring, exciting.
Marilyn - Chapin, SC Sunday, June 04, 2006
Penny made the class fun and interesting. I loved hearing her stories and it put the information in perspective! I really feel that I met a new friend that I can call on for advice.
Anna - Evans, SC Sunday, June 04, 2006
Thanks to the real-estate school for success for preparing me for the state exam and the real world of real estate. The whole team made me feel like part of the family.

Janet - Lexington, SC Thursday, May 18, 2006
I have been in many courses during my Banking Career and Fred kept my attention and was able to use real life scenarios when teaching. I have a short attention span and my mind was very rarely wondered. I thought he was a very good instructor, down-to-earth and was fair in his comments-Hit things head on while maintaining “Political correctness” with us.
Sally - Columbia, SC Thursday, May 11, 2006
The instructor was excellent and drew me into the course with the use of humorous anecdotes to reinforce course material. He was extremely knowledgeable and highly energetic.

Stacey,
Just wanted to take a moment and thank you guys again for the excellent job with your pre-licensing class. Frankie is a wonderful instructor and I learned so much more than just the basics. I really feel like I've got a head start as I join my office and begin the actual "work" of being a REALTOR. I was so happy with the quality of instruction and Frankie's excellent class allowed me to pass the state exam on the first try. Thanks again, and I look forward to taking the Final Sales class with you this spring.
Buck - Newberry, SC Sunday, January 22, 2006
I just want to thank you for doing such a great job making this complex info. understandable. I must admit that when I began looking in the book the first day it was a little scary. I looked around at all those young kids in the class and wondered if this old lady could keep up and grasp all this “stuff”. Your relatable stories and good common sense approach really put me at ease and I began to see how maybe I could pass. I have a fear of testing, especially since it has been so long and you were a tremendous help. You really know your “stuff”!!! You were awesome.
Debbie - Columbia, SC Tuesday, January 10, 2006
'The Real Estate School For Success' really taught me the essential tools I needed to begin my career in real estate. The staff would go out of their way to help me, and after completing the class they still offer me advice and a helping hand. 'The Real Estate School For Success' and the staff are awesome!
Kyle - Columbia, SC Monday, January 09, 2006
Excellent class! Frankie is very personable as well as knowledgeable which makes for a very relaxed and easy learning environment. I look forward to the Final Sales class and will definitely take Frankie’s “Success” course!
Jesse - Newberry, SC Thursday, December 22, 2005

Hey Stacey,
I would like to say that the school/teacher was very insightful and not cut and dry as most teachers tend to be. I especially liked the real life examples of unique occurrences in the various real estate deals that one should be aware of. I would recommend the school to anyone considering becoming an agent.
Scott - Batesburg, SC Monday, October 31, 2005
Frankie Griffin is an excellent instructor; his knowledge of the subject matter is extremely comprehensive, while his ability to emphasize specific areas and offer certain types of advice adds to the understanding and enjoyment of the course.

Stacey,
I can’t thank you and Frankie enough for all the help in obtaining my real estate license!! What a great time I had in class with Frankie Griffin!! He was very professional as well as made it fun and exciting to be there. The material used was very easy to understand but at the same time Frankie’s presentation made it even easier to retain. Your facility has a very professional atmosphere as well as friendship oriented. I will do my best to recommend the “Real Estate School For Success” to everyone I can tell about it as well as promote the staff associated with your business!!! In fact I have bragged about it so much I have co-workers and friends very much interested in signing up with your company. Most of all, you should be very proud of something your name is attached to because the school represents integrity, honesty and genuine concern that I see in you every time I’m at the school!! Anyway, I hope to always be in touch with you and Frankie and look forward to the future in Real Estate!!! Goooooooooood Stuff!!!!! Thanks!
Kenny - Irmo, SC October 29, 2005 Saturday, October 29, 2005
Dear Stacey,
I cannot tell you how pleased I was with your pre-license course! Frankie Griffin made the class both fun and interesting, especially in the subject matters that tend to be a bit dry. After the class I had the knowledge to not only pass the exam, but to help start my business as a real estate salesperson. The amount I paid for the class was negligible compared to the useful information I received. I will, without a doubt, return for all of the continuing education and courses I may need in the future. Thank you for providing Columbia with such a valuable asset. Warmest regards, Elizabeth Sullivan The Fowler Company
Elizabeth - Columbia, SC October 29, 2005 Saturday, October 29, 2005
Hey Stacey!
I would love to tell anyone who is interested in the real estate business that the best place to begin is The Real Estate School for Success! The class was fun, the teachers and speakers were fantastic, and I was more than prepared not only to sit for the State Exam but to begin my career in real estate with confidence. Frankie Griffin has got to be the best instructor in the business hands down! He went the extra mile by giving us real life experiences and helping us comprehend the theory of real estate in a practical way. I have been licensed for 2 weeks and I have one listing and one offer to buy in the negotiating process with a few other hot leads in the works. I believe I owe my success to being well prepared! Thanks to the Real Estate School of Success my career is off and running!
