Hello! I’m Eric, a passionate real estate agent currently living in a suburb of Green Bay, Wisconsin. I’m glad you are here, and I’m glad you are interested in learning more about EricEstate.
Originally from the Central Coast of California, I spent 17 years in the vibrant city of Austin, where I honed my skills in photography and developed a deep appreciation for diverse experiences.
As you can see, My journey hasn’t been a straight path; after high school, I ventured to Israel for a year before returning to work in a sporting goods store. Eventually, I pursued a degree in Biochemistry, but my love for photography took me on an exciting detour. I began capturing the world around me, sharing my travels—especially a memorable trip to Cuba, where I experienced a culture untouched by American influence for decades. This led to opportunities in wedding photography, where I found success and fulfillment. But I still didn’t have a house.
My house history
Also, my path to homeownership was not easy. While living in the Bay Area, my wife and I had great salaries, but the challenging market conditions made it impossible for us to buy a house. In search of better opportunities, we made the move to Austin, and luck was on our side.
We arrived just before the market boom and purchased our first home for $200K. When the value of that home doubled, we sold it and upgraded to a larger property. Once that home also doubled in price, we decided to “cash out” and move to Green Bay, allowing us to invest further in our future.
Getting into Real Estate
As life progressed, our priorities shifted when our son was born. Wanting to provide stability for my family while still making a meaningful impact, I earned my Real Estate License. Now, I focus primarily on residential properties, guiding everyone from first-time homebuyers to seasoned investors in their real estate journeys. I believe homeownership is one of the most powerful ways to build personal wealth, and I’m dedicated to helping my clients achieve that dream.
House Goals
One of my major life goals is to own 12 short-term rentals around the world, allowing my family to experience new places each month while also generating income through rentals. I’m passionate about acquiring and renovating properties into beautiful spaces that can be shared with others, providing them with memorable experiences.
Through this blog, I’ll share insider tips and strategies for navigating the real estate market, with a focus on investors looking to purchase second properties. I’ll explore house hacking, short-term rentals, and practical advice for millennials looking to buy their first home. My goal is to empower you with valuable insights as you embark on your real estate journey.
