Newbie from San Francisco in Crowdfunding RE

Real Estate Investor · San Francisco, CA · Member since 2014 · 3 posts · 2 votes

Hello all -

I'm excited to be part of this dynamic and engaging network of professionals and experts. I recently moved back to SF as Director of Investments at RealtyShares, where my main role will be to liaise with both Sponsors and Investors on our crowdfunding platform. I have over a decade of commercial real estate experience, across all asset classes and multiple geographies, while working at JLL, C&W, Navigant Consulting, and Bearingpoint Consulting. Fortunately, I have worked with Investors, Developers, and Banks, making some great friends along the way.

I look forward to establishing some great relationships here on BP, as well as engaging in some intense discussions around the topics of technology, real estate, sustainability, crowdfunding, capital markets, and economics.

Thank you and hope to connect with you soon!

    @Eric Manuel - RealtyShares sounds interested. Where are you headquartered here in SF? It would be awesome to meet up for coffee sometime and chat.

    @Eric Manuel I took a look at the website, some very intriguing stuff in there. Do you guys plan on doing any open houses/networking events for folks to meet, greet and learn more about crowdfunding?

    Realtyshares is accredited investors only??! Boooo! Love this idea though! I've been waiting for something like this to come along for a long time. @Eric Manuel

    @Eric Manuel ,

    I Like @Brandon Foken 's idea for an open house to learn more about it. We'll be meeting up on Wed in W Oakland at @Daniel S. to a cool spot down there the other day...
