We are constantly asked the following question. Is there a real estate school near me in Waco, Texas? 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 Waco 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 Waco.
These real estate schools made the list because they met the following criteria:
- Consistent Delivery of the Required Materials
- Focus on Preparation for the Final Exam
- Flexible Schedule and Ease of Use
- Satisfaction Guarantees for Students
No matter which school you select, you need to enter the course with a positive attitude and a determination. 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 Review Found the Following Rankings:
#1 – The CE Shop
#2 – Colibri Real Estate
#3 – Kaplan
#4 – AceableAgent
How did The CE Shop rank so high?
The first reason is the 5 day free trial program. This allows you to try out the class. Any portion of the course that you complete during the trial period will be saved and credited to you when you purchase the non trial version.
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.
Extensions are also available if you take longer than the 6 month period allowed to complete the course for a minimal fee.
Current Pricing for The CE Shop

The CE Shop package you should 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 is the next step up, including the core hours, examp prep module and a business building course.
- The premium package includes everything in the value package as well as 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.
The final reason that we found The CE Shop to be the best real estate school was the ability to split the payments for the course into three payments. Completing the course will allow you to apply for the open positions at Keller Williams Waco.
The benefits of taking an online course
- Schedule Flexibility. If you can login, you can study.
- Usually less expensive investment for the course than the classroom or the self study/book study format
- You will not be held up by others in the class that are not as committed to the course as you are.
- 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.
