Who it’s best for

  • Students who want self-paced online study.

Who should skip it

What it costs

Prices checked October 29, 2026, from Colibri Real Estate’s own pricing page unless noted. Prices change often, so check the official page before you buy.

  • Texas and California pre-licensing packages from $299 (official pages, checked October 29, 2026).
  • Texas requires 180 hours; California 135 hours.

What we like

  • "Pass or Don't Pay" guarantee, with conditions.
  • Self-paced online courses.
  • Refunds within 30 days on self-paced courses.
  • Packages for many states.

What to watch for

  • Trustpilot showed 3.8 out of 5 from about 8 reviews as of October 29, 2026, a very small sample.
  • The guarantee has strict rules.
  • Completed courses are not refundable.

The fine print

  • To use the guarantee you must score 80%+ on 3 practice exams and take the state exam within 30 days of finishing.
  • Requirements and prices vary by state.
  • Check your state's licensing rules.

The main alternative: The CE Shop

What it costs: CA $115 per course, checked October 29, 2026

Pick Colibri Real EstateChecked by Vetteroo if you…

  • want a pass-or-don't-pay offer.
  • want a package price.
  • study at your own pace.

Pick The CE Shop if you…

  • want to buy per course.
  • want a big national school.
  • want exam fee reimbursement.

Our take

Colibri is a reasonable online route to a real estate license, with a pass guarantee, but read its rules carefully before relying on it.
