Kertrum Dominique Cobbins

“I earned a bachelor's degree from East Texas A&M University in 2001. Soon after, I enrolled in real estate pre-licensing courses at Cedar Valley. By November, I was an active real estate sales professional.

“Dallas College was a great choice, and I recommend it to everyone who wants to get a real estate education. They had the schedule I needed. I had to be able to work and attend classes without burning myself out.

“The instructors were great and gave me more than what was in the textbook. I still reflect on their advice today, not just in real estate — but in life. With their stories and my observation, I decided to become a real estate broker and educator. I believe these two positions will keep me relevant in the industry."

Kertrum Dominique Cobbins has been a real estate professional since 2001. He got started in real estate by helping his mother with her real estate business. She initially pushed him to get more involved in the industry. Currently, Cobbins is a vice president and managing broker - Texas for Morris Williams Realty.

He holds a Texas real estate brokers license in addition to a Bachelor of Science degree from East Texas A&M University. His broad sales management experience includes mortgage lending.

“This program definitely made me feel inclusive and opens its doors to all walks of life to an industry that otherwise I would have never experienced or found on my own. I would tell people going through the program to take risks and try as many positions in this field. You never know when you may find your niche.”

“I was also able to apply for my real estate license exam with my associate degree. I make it my goal to tell other students, real estate agents and everyone I meet in the real estate field about furthering their education and obtaining a degree at the same time.”
