feedback and pictures from the latinx
real estate roundtable 2024

"As an emerging professional in the Commercial Real Estate industry, a defining moment for me was attending the NAREIM LatinX Real Estate Roundtable. It was inspiring to look around the room and observe a gathering of professionals who shared a similar cultural heritage and experience to mine. A lot of them had not only achieved significant milestones in their careers but had also leveraged the strength of their ethnic roots as an asset, rather than conforming to the conventional stereotype of success within the real estate sector."

"The LatinX Real Estate Roundtable was a wonderful event that provided a great forum for in-depth real estate discussions while also touching upon how to balance career development with our identities and the value proposition we bring as professionals with diverse backgrounds and experiences. It also provided an unparalleled networking opportunity where I was able to make strong connections with peers across the country."

"The event was as educational and interactive as much as it was candid. It was a very worthwhile experience meeting a lot of individuals that validated and shared my experience. Events like these make it easier to talk to people and no code switching was necessary."

"This experience really was amazing. It felt comforting, inviting, and hopeful and I really appreciate all of the work and planning that went into it. I hope I can join every year!!"
