I have recently graduated with a master of architecture degree and I am excited to learn and meet people in the real estate industry.

It was great to meet you yesterday at the REIA meeting.House hacking is definitely the way to go if you want to get your feet wet in real estate.

Here to research and meet people in the industry.

I'm looking forward to a great time here and meeting some of you all...Sincerely, Ernest F.
