Starting in the fitness and hospitality industry, Paul began his career as a service associate and eventually worked his way into operational management. His experience comes from restaurant operational management in particular while being involved in high growth periods of international and regional restaurant groups. He gained extensive knowledge in concept development and property acquirement as well as hands on experience in the creation of systems, processes, and financial/demographic analysis.

 

Paul is a licensed real estate broker in Illinois, is a member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), and also the Chicago Creative Investors Association, as well as the Chicago Real Estate Investor Networking Group. In 2016 he is beginning his pursuit of:

Paul’s passion lies in the service and development of others. He believes the real estate industry has the greatest potential for others to live a self-fulfilling life not only because of the success that can be built, but more importantly because of the many areas real estate has an effect on. Paul strongly believes the local economies, communities, businesses, and tradesmen amongst many others can all be positively affected through the company’s daily operations.
