Real Estate Training Institute

What Real Estate Training Institute does

Real Estate Training Institute (RETI) is a privately held, locally owned real estate education provider headquartered at 549 E Pass Rd, Suite B, Gulfport, Mississippi, founded circa 1989 (with one source citing 1986). The company delivers state-approved pre-licensing, post-licensing, broker, and continuing education courses required by the Mississippi Real Estate Commission for individuals pursuing or maintaining a real estate license in Mississippi. Course delivery spans four physical classroom locations (Gulfport, Hattiesburg via a Pearl River Community College Woodall Center partnership, Biloxi, and Southaven), real-time livestream broadcasts, and fully self-paced online formats, with an All Access Pass allowing students to mix modalities, instructors, and locations. Supporting products include a Quick Start System with over 3,000 quiz questions, free class review sessions, a free one-year extension policy, and self-published Mississippi- and Tennessee-specific coursework workbooks bundled with enrollment at no additional cost.

The underlying technology stack is conventional education-sector infrastructure rather than a proprietary platform: a learning management system for self-paced courses, online quiz delivery, and Eventbrite for e-commerce enrollment and ticketing. Pricing is one-time, all-inclusive, and ranges from $150 for a 16-hour CE course to $595 for the 60-hour Pre-License Course, with post-license and post-broker tiers at $200 and $300 respectively and standalone CE modules at $10/hour. Group discount and free extension policies provide modest pricing flexibility, but there is no subscription model, no enterprise licensing, and no AI-driven personalization layer. The go-to-market motion is sales-led, combining organic digital presence (website, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google reviews) with direct phone inquiries and in-person registration.

Revenue is generated entirely from individual consumer course enrollment fees, with no enterprise contracts, no institutional buyers, and no funding rounds or institutional capital involvement documented. Customer segments are exclusively individuals pursuing licensure: aspiring professionals, newly licensed salespersons completing mandatory post-license hours, licensed professionals fulfilling biennial CE requirements, and experienced agents pursuing broker licensure. The business is regionally concentrated within Mississippi with no public revenue disclosure, and the Southaven/Memphis metro footprint represents the only adjacent-market extension visible in the data.
