I am so excited to let you know that I submitted my FIRST OFFER last night and used the CNE method + your amazing narrative template. And after a small counteroffer, we are now under contract! Thank you again! CNE was, hands down, dollar for dollar, the best money I’ve ever spent!

I looked at the tools you provided, figured out an approach, and increased my share of the commission by an additional $25,000. Thank you for the wonderful class. We are already planning to attend again and bring many others from our office.

After taking your class, I used the negotiation worksheet. I was able to go to the Seller very confident in my presentation and suggestions. The Seller gave me several compliments on the tactics we used and their confidence in me. This class was the best and most valuable I have taken in my years in Real Estate.
