Why Canopy Real Estate Institute?

  • 50-year track record: Canopy Real Estate Institute is one of the largest and most established real estate schools in the Carolinas.
  • Affordable: Our courses offer competitive pricing with no hidden fees and designed to deliver maximum value for your investment.
  • Digital Online Portal:  Our virtual education hub gives students 24/7 access to everything they need—whether taking courses online or in person. Think of it as your personal digital locker, housing class materials, education records, and progress tracking all in one place. Study at your own pace and complete your course in as little as 1 to 2 months, depending on your schedule.
  • Quality instruction: Our top-notch, award-winning instructors aren’t just teachers—they’re active real estate professionals. From agents to brokerage owners,  they bring real-world expertise, industry insight, and mentorship to guide you through every stage of your career.
  • From Classroom to Career: Canopy invites firms directly into the classroom, providing students with valuable face-to-face engagement. Company representatives answer questions, share insights during breaks, and actively recruit, giving students direct access to potential opportunities with real estate firms, all without ever leaving class.
  • More for your money: We provide robust student support to ensure every learner has the tools they need to succeed. Each Prelicensing course includes a free #CanopyPrepped exam review session, along with instructor office hours for personalized, one-on-one attention. Students also have access to private tutoring—individually or in groups—as well as assistance with application completion. Dedicated staff are available to help with everything from study schedules to resolving character issues before applying. Students even have the opportunity to meet with our Executive Director for personalized action planning and mentorship. 
  • Student Orientation & Built-In Study Day: Before classes begin, students are given a comprehensive orientation where they meet their instructor and support team, learn what to expect from the course, ask questions, and receive valuable tips to start strong and stay confident.
  • We also include a dedicated Study Day—a break between the final class session and the exam—giving students time to review, prepare, and walk into test day feeling ready and relaxed.
  • Retake Options That Support Your Success: While most schools only offer one attempt at the end-of-course exam, we provide two opportunities to pass—because we’re committed to your success, not just your enrollment.
