In perhaps one of the most unusual housing markets of all time and on the eve of achieving my MBA, I launched my career into high risk, often unstable Real Estate brokerage. Some might look from the outside in and wonder why I would chose such a risky path, and one which did not even remotely require my Masters of Business, which took me the past 6 years to achieve. For me, however, the decision was clear and natural. I have always been around real estate transactions as that is what my parents have always done, and often times as a child, my family would take trips through neighborhoods just to look at homes and search for real estate deals.
Owning a contracting business in undergrad allowed me to see the rehab side of things, how homes are built, what can go wrong, and how to fix almost every aspect of a house. In graduate school I learned the in depth processes of real estate valuation and investment analysis. Upon graduating, I was working as a Realtor in the new homes sector for about 6 months and personally owned 2 investment homes of my own, so I will repeat once again. The decision to enter general brokerage in the often times risky industry of Real Estate was actually very natural and clear.
I am confident this is the path God has directed me too, especially given the recent success that I have been seeing. At this point, I love the work and I love helping people make what often times is the biggest decision of their lives.
