This week, our CEO class had the opportunity to hear from Curtis Thompson at one of his properties, where we got a firsthand look inside a home he is currently flipping and learned about the home-buying process.

Curtis shared valuable insight into what it takes to get started in real estate, emphasizing the importance of building a strong financial foundation. Students learned about credit scores, saving for a home, different loan options, and what to look for when purchasing a property. The visit also highlighted how much planning and preparation go into major life decisions like buying a home.

A few student takeaways from the visit:

🔹 “Manage your credit wisely.”
🔹 “Always pay on time and communicate clearly.”
🔹 “Preparation is key.”

Thank you to Curtis and Rachel Thompson for opening your property to our class and sharing your knowledge with our students!
