Spanish for real estate agents who are losing deals in it
1on1Spanish gives you private Spanish lessons with qualified native teachers, online across the United States. Lessons built around showings, offers and the phone calls you are currently handing to somebody else in the office.
Every buyer you cannot walk through a house is a buyer walking through it with another agent.

The deal you lost was not about price
Somebody called about a listing, the conversation was hard work for both of you, and they did not call back. You will never find out what happened, because nobody tells their agent that the reason was the language.
Spanish-speaking buyers and sellers are a large share of the market in most of the country, and they do what everybody does: they go where the conversation is easy. That preference is not sentimental, it is practical — a house is the biggest purchase of their lives and they want to ask questions in the language they think in.
The agent who can answer those questions gets the listing. That is the whole argument on this page.
Where an agent's Spanish runs out
Not in the greeting. Agents are fine at the greeting. It falls apart at three specific points, and each one costs money.
-
The showing
You can name the rooms. What you cannot do is answer the question about the roof, read the hesitation in the kitchen, or make the small talk in the car between houses — which is where you find out what they actually want.
-
The paperwork conversation
Not translating the contract, which is not your job. Explaining out loud what an inspection contingency means, why the closing date matters, and what happens if the appraisal comes in low. Buyers sign what they understand.
-
The family on the call
Often the parents are helping with the down payment and they are the ones asking the real questions, in Spanish, at speed, from another room. Win that call and you have the deal.
The math on this one is unusually simple
Most professional training is an act of faith about a payoff you cannot measure. This is not that. One closing you would otherwise have lost covers a year of lessons several times over, and you will know which closing it was.
That is the entry plan on the right: one lesson a week, one-on-one, with a qualified native teacher. Four a week costs more and moves faster, and you can switch between them month to month.
We are not going to pretend a month of Spanish turns you into a bilingual agent. We are saying the arithmetic of trying is not close.

Real estate agent Spanish built from your own listings
There is no real estate phrasebook here. You bring the material you already work with: the listing you are showing on Saturday, the objection you got last week, the voicemail you did not fully understand.
Your teacher builds the lesson from that, which is only possible because every lesson is one-on-one. A rehearsed showing on Tuesday is worth more than a year of vocabulary lists, and it is the kind of thing you can only rehearse with a person who will play the buyer.
After every lesson you get exercises generated from the mistakes you actually made, and every plan includes unlimited AI practice between lessons for the drilling — running the same objection fifteen times without booking anybody.
Lessons that fit an agent's week, which is to say no week at all
A 25-minute lesson goes between two showings or after the last one. It is short on purpose: an hour is a better lesson and a far worse habit for somebody whose Saturday belongs to strangers.
You book the slots you want and move them when a client moves. Teachers are available early, late and across time zones, and plans are monthly with no contract, which matters in a business with a good spring and a quiet November.
Everything runs in a browser, like the rest of our online Spanish classes, so a lesson can happen from a car between appointments.
Nothing here is exclusive to real estate. The same teachers and the same 25-minute format are how anyone can learn Spanish online with us, which is why the schedule bends rather than the curriculum.
What we do not do
We do not translate contracts, review documents or give any kind of legal or transactional advice. Whatever your brokerage requires for Spanish-language documents — certified translation, a bilingual attorney, dual-language forms — it still requires it after you learn Spanish.
What changes is everything spoken: the showing, the objection, the negotiation over the phone, the reassurance at the closing table. That is where deals are won, and it is not a document.
If your Spanish is already conversational and the gap is speed and register rather than vocabulary, our conversational Spanish plans cover the same ground from the other direction.
What real estate Spanish lessons cost
Plans run from $84 a month for one lesson a week up to $264 a month for four. Every plan is one-on-one, 25 minutes, with a qualified native teacher. Book any teacher, any available slot. No weekly caps.
Same teachers and same monthly plans as everyone else — there is no professional rate and no minimum term. Agents commonly expense it; the invoice comes from the account and shows the plan and the month.
Every plan includes unlimited AI practice with our conversation partner, for the days between lessons.
Your first month is $1 — on any plan.
Questions agents ask before they start
How much Spanish do I need to run a showing?
Less than you think for the house itself and more than you think for the conversation around it. Naming rooms and features is quick to learn; understanding a fast question about financing, or catching that a buyer is hesitating, is the part that takes real practice with a person who answers back.
Can you teach me the Spanish for contracts and disclosures?
We can teach you to explain them out loud, which is what buyers actually need from you. We do not translate documents or give legal advice, and whatever your brokerage requires for Spanish-language paperwork still applies. Speaking about the contract and producing the contract are different jobs.
Which variety of Spanish should a real estate agent learn?
The one your market speaks, and for most of the United States that is Latin American Spanish. Our teachers come from across Latin America and from Spain, so tell us the country your clients are mostly from in the level test and we match where the schedule allows.
I only have gaps between appointments. Does that work?
That is what the twenty-five-minute format is for. You book the slots you want and move them when a client moves, and teachers are available early, late and across time zones. The plan that survives a busy spring is the one short enough to keep on a bad day.
How long until I can handle a Spanish-speaking client on my own?
It depends on your starting point and how often you speak, and anybody promising a date is guessing. What we can say is that a showing improves before general fluency does, because a showing is a narrow, repeatable situation — which is exactly what one-on-one rehearsal is good at.
