Q. Do I have to attend the Short Sale Summit to take Five Star Institute courses?

A. No. While we strongly encourage participation in the Short Sale Summit, you may attend only the Five Star REO Certification event if you choose.

Q. Can I just attend the Short Sale Summit?

A. Absolutely! The Five Star Institute Short Sale Summit is offered on Thursday of the event and can be attended without purchasing additional Five Star Institute courses.

Q. Can’t make it in person?

At FSI, we are developing online courses for these certifications. Check back here, or, contact FSI's concierge Brandi Jobe at Brandi.Jobe@FiveStarInstitute.com to receive notification when the online courses are available.
