Strategic Real Estate Investment & Multifamily Partnerships

Experienced. Credible. Relationship-Driven.

With a background spanning more than two decades in real estate, finance, lending, and entrepreneurship, I bring a strategic and relationship-driven approach to real estate investment and development. My journey in real estate began in 1998 managing a small property in Illinois, followed by owning and operating rental property in Chicago beginning in 2002. These early experiences provided firsthand knowledge of property management, tenant relations, operations, and the long-term value of real estate ownership.

My professional career began in the financial industry with Forsyth Securities Inc, where I worked alongside hedge fund managers and portfolio teams supporting research initiatives and cultivating relationships tied to multimillion and billion-dollar asset portfolios. This experience strengthened my understanding of market analysis, investor relations, and disciplined financial strategy.

I later advanced into the mortgage and residential lending industry with Residential Finance Corporation, where I consistently ranked among the top producers nationwide in a highly competitive, male-dominated industry. Known by colleagues as "Bauerpower," I generated between $500,000 and $1 million in residential mortgage volume monthly while independently managing client relationships, loan coordination, compliance, and operational quality control.
