Weichert, Realtors-The 515 Agency
Specialties: Residential, Commercial, Land
In early 2014 Matt Posusta & Ryan Hoover met and started a partnership known as “515 Realtors”. While unsure how they would get there or what exactly it would look like they had the big goal in mind of opening up a Brokerage at some point in the future. Fortunately their journey took them through a couple great brokerages where they met great people, great mentors and helped them to gain a wealth of experience while they worked very hard to deliver results and happy clients! Along the way they were able to establish a great partnership with some like minded business/industry professionals from a different market and together they opened up 515 Real Estate & Insurance in 2018. 515 REI was a 100% independent brokerage; focused on becoming as agent centric as possible. Shortly after 515 opened its doors they launched a full service Property Management division, which took off!! As the property management became a bigger part of their business they developed a Real Estate Investing division as well; catering to new & established investors who wanted to grow/diversify their portfolios. Being a true ‘one stop shop’ and extending the client relationship has been an amazing experience and truly differentiates them from the competition. Numbers are growing aggressively, and investors are strengthening their portfolios creating better long term wealth! One thing that slowed a bit during the rapid growth in Property Management and Real Estate Investing was the Real Estate sales division. Matt & Ryan discovered Weichert, Realtors® and learned all about the industry leading training, national exposure, systems, resources and marketing that Weichert offered and they decided to acquire an independently owned franchise. In November, 2019 “Weichert, Realtors® - The 515 Agency” was born! This new franchise system allows them to offer agents & clients a level of support that was not currently available in the Central Iowa market. Acquiring the national exposure, industry leading tools/marketing/resources and leverage while remaining a local independently owned brokerage = no brainer for their clients, their agents and their communities!!

Steve Schulman
The Schulman Group | Compass
Specialties: Residential
I'm a "investor-focused" real estate agent, multifamily investor and team lead at Compass, serving the northern NJ region. I started my real estate journey as an investor, house-hacking and full gut rehabbing a 1920s built two-family in Bayonne, NJ with an FHA 203k loan. Shortly after, I jumped in full-time as a licensed NJ Realtor and never looked back. Now, I live and invest in Hudson County and run a small team of investor savvy agents, working primarily with investors and landlords, as it’s what I know best. By leveraging my investor experience, local market knowledge and expertise, my focus is helping "house-hackers" and new aspiring investors acquire their first rental property and jumpstart their real estate investment career. Whether you are a new investor trying to overcome "paralysis-analysis" and purchase your first rental property, or you are a seasoned investor looking to BRRRR, fix & flip or continue building your RE portfolio through creative financing, don't hesitate to reach out. I would love to hear more about your story and discuss how I can help you reach your real estate goals. More About Steve: Steve attended Montclair State University where he played baseball and earned a bachelor’s degree in Economics. He began his professional career working for Related Companies, a prominent real estate investment firm. It was in that capacity, where he discovered his appetite for the real estate domain. This passion, coupled with his desire to help others, encouraged Steve to leave corporate behind and chart his own course. Steve maintains his competitive edge by continuously seeking to educate himself on all aspects of real estate, leveraging best in class technology with his developed skillset, market knowledge & expertise, to stay ahead of local and national trends. It's not "yes or no", but "yes or how?" with The Schulman Group. That's the winning, investor mindset. As a trusted advisor and seasoned real estate professional, Steve puts relationships above everything, whether that's growing his network and sphere of influence or working closely with his team to ensure exceptional service and add true value to real estate investors for the long-term. When you work with Steve, you not only get him and his dynamic team, but you get his trusted network of real estate specialists that include a roster of reliable and dependable contractors, attorneys, inspectors, lenders, and more.
