We must get asked the same question once a day. Is there a real estate school near me in Barrington, Illinois? If this is the case, you are on the right page.
We have taken the time to review over 50 real estate schools and have selected the four best that are approved by the state to offer classes that satisfy the credit hour requirements and join the Keller Williams Barrington office. Real estate schools are independent of real estate brokerage companies, so the schools on this list reflect this fact and offer you the best opportunity to take the required real estate class and pass the final exam on the first attempt. The sooner you do so, the quicker you will be able to join Keller Williams Barrington.
These real estate schools made the list because they met the following criteria:
- Commitment to following the state approved ciriculum
- Exam Prepartion as an equal focus to the required credit hours
- Ease of Use
- Satisfaction Guarantees for Students
No matter how good of a rating a real estate school gets or what types of reviews it gets from previous students, the ultimate factor for success remains in the hands of the individual student. If the student is commited to completing the course and putting in the time required to acheive success, then the school itself is not as much of a factor. That being said, these schools are on the list because they provide the best environment for you to achieve that success, without distractions from other students or the contrainsts of an inferior instructor or rigid school schedule.
Our #1 Recommendation:
The CE Shop Real Estate School
The Other School making the list:
How did The CE Shop rank so high?
The CE Shop offers a 5 day free trial. Any part of the course that you complete during that time period will be saved and you will get credit for it when you purchase a full package.
Another reason is that they offer a 30 day full money back guarantee as long as less than 50% of the course has been completed. Because of the online nature of the school, they are able to offer free trials and guarantees that are not possible in a classroom setting. Having an ability to try the class out before you fully buy gives the student the peace of mind to jump right in and get started on the course.
If you are not able to complete the course in the time period allowed, you will be able to purchase an extension for a minimal fee from The CE Shop.

Which Package Should I Select?
It might be hard to decide between the 4 packages that The CE Shop offers, but we are here to explain to you which one is the best for you.
- The course only package includes the core required hours course for the state.
- The standard package throws in the exam prep module as well.
- The value package adds a business building course to the required hours and exam prep.
- If you are serious about your career in real estate, the premium package will include everything in the value package and the state required post licensing course.
We recommend either the Standard or Value Level package with The CE Shop. The Premium bundle with the post licensing course is also an attractive investment.
When you are first getting into real estate, there are a number of financial investments that you need to make, including the real estate course. The CE Shop understands this and lets you break your payments into equal thirds. This helps your cash flow as you are getting started.

The benefits of taking an online course
- Flexibility in study time. Anytime you can log on to the internet, you can be studying.
- Less expensive than a classroom course that has to pay for meeting space and an instructor.
- If you have a high comprehension and retention level when you read, you could be done with the course in a matter of days as long as you pass the course final exam.
- Each section includes a chapter quiz that you must pass before you proceed to the next section. This ensures that you understand the inforamtion that is going to be included on the test.
Remember, no matter the course format or package that you select, each requires a final exam.
The real estate course will introduce you to the principles and practice of real estate. It will not teach you how to run a real estate business, how to find buyers and sellers and how to have a successful career as a real estate agent.
