— Founder & Lead Trainer
John Perry is an accomplished nonprofit Operations Director and Public Sector Program Manager specializing in government administration, regulatory compliance, and statewide public safety initiatives.
As a former State Fire Marshal’s Office Community Risk Reduction Coordinator for the State of Tennessee Commerce & Insurance, John administered critical statewide programs designed to mitigate residential hazards and protect local communities.
Real estate professionals work hard to protect their clients, but standard continuing education has a gap when it comes to fire prevention and home safety. That's why John, alongside his wife, Denise, founded Frontline Academy LLC—to give agents the tools they need to spot hidden hazards and navigate every transaction with total confidence.
Directed statewide Community Risk Reduction efforts across Tennessee Commerce & Insurance to modernize property safety standards.
John holds fire inspector and hazardous materials certifications and is a certified educator with the Tennessee State Real Estate Commission.
Engineered a practical 3-hour workshop giving real estate professionals concrete mitigation tools unavailable in standard seminars.
Most real estate continuing education relies on passive online lectures that skip practical site evaluation. When listing older homes or hillside parcels in high-exposure interface zones, agents need concrete inspection methods rather than abstract legal summaries.
Our goal is to bring real-world experience directly into 3-hour live workshops, training you to spot fire hazards, evaluate defensible space, and document property realities before client contracts are executed.
Our intensive 3-hour course equips you with practical skills to navigate complex property risks and protect your clients.
