Rick Holland was amazing! He was an incredible mentor—always helpful and welcoming. I learned so much from him. The experience was wonderful, especially touring some of his developments like the Birdsong Apartments. Every single meeting, I learned something new. I couldn’t be more grateful to have had him as my mentor.

Real Connections

"I can definitely say going through this program is a focal point in my RE education thus far. It helped me consider my interests in real estate, identify my natural strengths, and brought some clarity to my career aspirations / areas I may want to specialize. It was great to be in a cohort of like-minded individuals and build friendships with others of similar interests as our own careers evolve and grow."

Real Results

"This an incredible opportunity to be mentored by industry leaders and veterans from Foresite Commercial Real Estate. Bethany, Chad, Alexandria, and the whole Foresite team were amazing to work with and were always willing to meet virtually one-on-one and provide insightful information for our course work. I’m grateful to have been part of Foresite’s 2020 Training Program, as I made so many connections and it led me to my current employment at NorthMarq!"

Real Growth

"Six weeks into the program, I got my first job in commercial real estate as a commercial advisor at Resolut RE. So I can definitively say that this class prepares you extremely well because everything I learned in class is exactly what I'm doing on the job. It gave me the confidence I needed to succeed as an employee and as a broker building my career in this business."
