Modern Agent Institute was created to break the mold of traditional real estate schools. Too many programs teach outdated material or leave students feeling lost after the exam. Janelle Compton, with over 21 years as an agent, broker, and investor, saw a better way.
At MAI, education isn’t just about passing a test—it’s about building a future. We welcome ambitious newcomers, second-chance stories, and rising leaders, giving them a launchpad to real success in Texas real estate. Our approach combines practical knowledge, personal mentorship, and proven strategies that work in the field. Students don’t just learn the law; they learn how to find clients, close deals, and build wealth.
Founder & CEO
After 21+ years in the trenches as an agent, broker, and investor, I saw too many people being left behind—by outdated systems, gatekeepers, or their own self-doubt. I didn’t want to create just another real estate school. I wanted to build a movement—one that welcomes everyone to the table: future agents, team leaders, comeback stories, and the next generation of wealth-builders.
Modern Agent Institute is more than a collection of classes. It’s a launchpad for the hungry, the overlooked, and the unapologetically ambitious. Here, we empower you with the mindset, the skills, and the real-world strategies to turn dreams into contracts, clients into closings, and hustle into generational change.
If you’re ready to hustle with purpose, take up space, and build a life on your own terms—then welcome home. You belong here.

Modern Agent Institute (MAI) gives students the flexibility to purchase courses individually or as a package. Regardless of the option you choose, tuition must be paid in full at the time of enrollment. Each course within the package is also available for individual purchase, allowing students to progress through the program at their own pace.
