The site is http://www.austinrealestateschool.info/. It is, in our opinion, an attack web site where they posted negative and false claims about other real estate schools in Austin. They also posted the other school's phone numbers so their false statements could be exposed. Finally around the first week of June, 2008 they have taken down this attack website. However, on 6/6/2008 the attack site was back up and it has changed but still has incorrect information.
- Why would they post claims that knew or should have known were false?
- Why would they not make changes when they were informed there was a problem?
- Why would they post the contact information so their false claims could be exposed?
- Why would anyone believe their other claims like market share or they can make you rich, after seeing this site?
- Why would a real estate company pay for advertising on a site like this?
- Why didn't someone at the company say; "Excuse me but isn't this a really stupid idea????"
- Why would they think that companies who are the subject of the false claims will just sit back and let this continue?
If you have an answer to these questions or other comments about this site or this school let us know.

When our attorney contacted them they elected to ignored our letter. So, TREC has been notified and the TREC complaint file number is: #081192. We tried to resolve the problem without filing a formal complaint with the Real Estate Commission. But they left us no choice.
They claim we do not have 100% online courses.
That is false.
They claim that we do not have unproctored correspondence exams.
That is false.
They claim our web sites are not secure.
That is false.
The list goes on and on. Not just about us but other schools as well.
Know what is a good idea. Take their other claims with a grain of salt and take your classes from a school you can trust.
