Training and Education are vital to success in the real estate business. The Training Department of Coldwell Banker Legacy Realtors is committed to train its agents, new and experienced, to be the most professional, knowledgeable, honest and finest agents in the Industry in Albuquerque.

Our true, hands on, real world approach to training combines our own in-house instruction with that of “Coldwell Banker University”, the National industry leader in agent training.

Our Training Department, comprising Cathy Conn, a $15,000,000 producer and her licensed team member of 15 years, Rosie Harmon, plus Tanya Guzman, the Office Manager is committed to teach agents everything they need to know in just beginning their career and building their business, to instructing experienced agents on how to reach the next level.

To join the Success Training Center, agents must be licensed and hired by Coldwell Banker to be a part of one of their 8 real estate offices. The program is 4 months in length to include a 6 week Basic Training Class which emphasizes building relationships through various Prospecting Techniques such as developing a Sphere of Influence List, FSBOs and Expired, Mall and Floor Duty Training as well as Open Houses, Telemarketing, Geographical/ Niche Farming and E-Marketing.

During the 6 weeks, new agents are carried through a Buyer’s Module and a Seller’s Module, role playing each step from contacting the client or customer, to consulting with them, servicing their needs with exemplary service and reaching a desired outcome. Negotiating Techniques, are practiced as well as Listing Presentations to give each agent the confidence and knowledge needed to jump start their career.
