History
In 1983 Tape Ed Real Estate School was established as the first distance education school in Washington. After 10 years of teaching Washington Real Estate Fundamentals at his brokerage office and North Seattle Community College, Donald Gorman started Tape Ed. Since then we have become one of the leading providers of real estate education in the State of Washington. From the very beginning, the goal of Tape Ed was to provide pre-agents, agents and brokers quality education at an affordable price.
As the pioneer in distance education, we were the first real estate school to provide textbook and audio courses to agents at their brokerage offices. We have built a company with a multi-media approach to education that includes internet-based courses with online video classes, live instruction, textbook and audio courses and DVD’s. We offer real estate education that suits every learning style.
In 1995, believing that computer based education was going to be the “school” of the future, Don registered www.realestateschool.org as a domain name. Four years later realestateschool.org powered by Tape Ed was launched. In 2005 we were the #1 school in clock hour education.
As our school has expanded and our staff has grown to include tech support, programmers, website managers, editors and videographers; we have remained steadfast in our commitment to provide quality real estate education at a reasonable price. Over twenty years later that formula is still working for the thousands of Tape Ed and www.realestateschool.org students who are successfully completing our courses.
Our mission is to provide our students with quality real estate education at an affordable price. Our multi-media approach to education allows our students to select a format that best suits their individual learning style.
Providing superior service has been the goal of Tape Ed from our first day of business 25 years ago. Superior service is still our goal and the proof of our success is evidenced in our high rate of returning customers. We are the #1 distance education school in our state.
We offer the brokers and agents of Washington State a wide selection of courses that educate and inform while fulfilling clock hour requirements.
We are committed to providing our WA pre-license students with the best real estate education and most comprehensive exam preparation available.
Our staff works to continually improve our existing courses, provide new courses and to offer technical and office support that is unmatched in our industry.
