Founded in 2022, REI Accelerator was created with a simple mission: to help investors gain the education, mentorship, and community support needed to navigate the world of multifamily real estate investing. Real estate can be a powerful vehicle for building wealth and creating financial freedom, but many aspiring investors struggle to find reliable guidance, proven strategies, and experienced mentors who can help them avoid costly mistakes.

REI Accelerator bridges that gap by providing practical education, real-world insights, and a supportive network of investors committed to growth and continuous learning. Through coaching, mentorship, and implementation-focused training, the program is designed to help students better understand real estate investing while developing the confidence needed to pursue opportunities aligned with their goals.

Whether you’re just beginning your investing journey or looking to expand an existing portfolio, REI Accelerator provides the resources and support necessary to make informed decisions and take meaningful action.

REI Accelerator was founded by Jonathan Cronin and Larry Kite, two professionals who share a passion for real estate investing, mentorship, and helping others achieve their goals through education and strategic guidance.

Jonathan Cronin

Jonathan Cronin serves as Co-Founder of REI Accelerator and has dedicated his career to helping investors develop the skills and knowledge required to succeed in real estate. His experience includes working with aspiring investors, business professionals, and entrepreneurs seeking to better understand multifamily investing, partnership structures, capital raising, and portfolio growth strategies.

Jonathan believes that education is one of the most valuable investments a person can make. Through mentorship and practical guidance, he helps students navigate complex investing concepts while focusing on disciplined decision-making and long-term success.

Larry Kite

Larry Kite is Co-Founder of REI Accelerator and is passionate about helping individuals create opportunities through real estate investing. Known for his hands-on approach to coaching and education, Larry works closely with students to simplify complex investing concepts and help them build confidence as they evaluate opportunities and develop their investment strategies.

His mentorship emphasizes practical implementation, relationship building, and continuous learning—qualities that are essential for long-term growth in the real estate industry.

Together, Jonathan and Larry established REI Accelerator to provide aspiring investors with access to the type of education, mentorship, and community support they wished more people had when beginning their own investing journeys.

Since launching in 2022, REI Accelerator has supported investors from a variety of backgrounds, experience levels, and markets. Through educational programs, mentorship opportunities, and a growing community, the organization has helped students gain valuable investing knowledge and develop stronger strategies for evaluating opportunities.

Students participating in the program have pursued goals such as:

• Learning multifamily investing fundamentals
• Building relationships with experienced investors
• Understanding capital raising concepts
• Evaluating potential investment opportunities
• Developing underwriting and financial analysis skills
• Expanding professional networks
• Exploring portfolio growth strategies

Building a Community of Investors

One of the core strengths of REI Accelerator is its community. Real estate investing can often feel overwhelming, particularly for new investors. By connecting students with mentors and peers who share similar goals, the program creates an environment where learning, collaboration, and accountability can thrive.

Results Through Education and Implementation

Every investor’s journey is unique, and outcomes depend on numerous factors, including effort, experience, market conditions, and available resources. However, many students report increased confidence, stronger analytical skills, improved understanding of real estate investing, and greater clarity regarding their investment goals after participating in the program.

Verified Performance Metrics

The following metrics should be updated with verified company data:

• Combined Assets Under Management (AUM)
• Capital Raised
• Total Transactions Completed
• Students Served
• Markets Reached
• Portfolio Growth Statistics

Publishing transparent and verifiable metrics helps prospective students better understand the scope and impact of the REI Accelerator community.
