Mark Twain once said he never let schooling interfere with his education. He never had to renew a real estate license.
When Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed legislation in 2019 that sent veteran real estate agents back to class, Compass’ Adelaide Polsinelli told TRD she found the assumption that senior brokers still needed continuing education to be an “interesting” one.
She wasn’t wrong. Neither was Meridian Capital Group’s David Schechtman when he called 22-and-a-half hours a “draconian” amount of time to spend training every two years just to keep selling homes — though he did support the idea in general.
Jump through the bureaucratic hoops, unless you want to end up like this guy. But don’t let it interfere with TRD EDU.
