This year, unlike in years past, the event was held virtually on Zoom with many more alumni panelists involved. The event started with an overview of the real estate market in the United States today by Cameron Lawson &#8217;17 (Fun Fact: Cameron started the RE club on campus!). He explained that the US housing market was worth over $34 trillion dollars. He also went on to explain that the US real estate market can be broken down into 5 sectors: offices, industrial, multi-family, retail, and hospitality. He also talked about the many career opportunities that are involved in real estate for those who were interested. Cameron\u2019s overview helped paint a clear picture for students to know how the real estate industry has an effect on every aspect of American society.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panelist section of the webinar included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Colin Blair \u201800 of Cushman &amp; Wakefield<\/li><li>Cassandra Clark \u201902 of JP Morgan<\/li><li>Paul Formichelli \u201996 of JLL<\/li><li>Bill Garey \u201812 of Taurus Investment Holdings<\/li><li>Cameron Lawson \u201917 of National Development<\/li><li>Rob Rossi \u201916 of Taconic Capital Advisors<\/li><li>Robert Valenti \u201811 of Kosmont<\/li><li>James Whelan \u201900 of JP Morgan<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each panelist gave a brief informative presentation of how they ended up in their respective line of work which helped students understand the many different paths you can take to end up in the Real Estate industry. While all of the panelists are now currently in the Real Estate industry, almost all of them did not expect that they would end up working in real estate while at Holy Cross. The panelists also gave students advice on the best ways to enter into the Real Estate sector coming out of college, including using the feature on Handshake (Enter Link) for those applying for internships.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are loads of upcoming events and meetings, so consider joining a student business club! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.holycross.edu\/academics\/ciocca-center-business-ethics-and-society\/opportunities\/student-business-clubs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about student business clubs.<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday, September 22nd over 40 students attended the annual 2020 Real Estate Panel and Networking Reception.
