UNPARALLELED IN THE INDUSTRY
Our study material is unparalleled as we have written our own content to improve the ability for students to easily understand the information necessary to pass the state exam on the first attempt.
This also allows us to deliver these courses to our students at the best price available anywhere, and to constantly update the materials to reflect the newest changes in California Real Estate law.
Our course content is developed by an experienced team led by Gordon Frankel-Light, who brings a strong legal and education background to License Solution’s California-specific materials. A graduate of Brown University and NYU School of Law, Gordon was admitted to the California Bar in 1995 and has spent his career at the intersection of law, education and content development — including roles with About.com, Thomson Reuters and Jacoby & Meyers.
