AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Aceable, an innovative online learning company, is excited to announce the acquisition of Real Estate Institute, a leading Illinois-based provider of professional licensing education. This strategic move expands Aceable's footprint in real estate, adding to its brand AceableAgent, which was recently named Fortune's 'Best Overall' Real Estate School for 2024. This acquisition also paves the way for Aceable's expansion into insurance and mortgage education.

Blake Garret, CEO of Aceable, commented, "The addition of Real Estate Institute allows us to enter Illinois, one of the nation's largest real estate markets. It also marks the beginning of our expansion into insurance and mortgage education, which have been on our roadmap for years."

Founded in 1992, Real Estate Institute has delivered high-quality professional education to over 195,000 alumni nationwide. The company is the dominant provider of professional licensing education for real estate, insurance, and mortgage professionals in Illinois and is favored by loyal alumni in every market it serves.

Larry Toban, President and CEO of Real Estate Institute, stated, "Joining forces with Aceable marks an exciting new chapter for Real Estate Institute. "This partnership will enable us to leverage Aceable's technology and resources to further enhance our offerings and help many more professionals earn and maintain their licenses in the years ahead. We also look forward to adding additional value for our clients, who recruit and employ individual licensees."

Real Estate Institute's growth was supported by its majority shareholder, Greybull Stewardship ("Greybull"), a private investment firm that partners with small, established businesses to help them grow and scale. Greybull positions companies for sustainable growth and long-term value creation by providing resources, strategic guidance, and operational expertise.
