Real Estate Club
The purpose of this club is to further the Austin Community College student body’s knowledge about real estate as an industry and as a career. We are committed to providing our members with as much information and knowledge about the real estate industry as we can with the resources that we have access to.
We meet on Mondays at the Highland Campus. At each meeting we have a guest speaker/recruiter from a local brokerage company who covers various new agent topics and makes a pitch to work for their company. We also discuss the Austin real estate market performance at each meeting as well as various real estate skills and techniques. The club has helped many ACC real estate students find a sponsoring broker and get off to a good start in their careers. This club is all about jobs !
Upcoming Real Estate Club Meeting
The Austin Community College Real Estate Club Student Life Organization invites you to join the ACC Real Estate Club meeting on Monday, April 28th at 7:00 PM at the ACC Highland Campus, 6101 Highland Campus Dr, Austin, TX 78752, Building 1000, Room 2209 from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM.
Topic: Unlocking Opportunity: Innovative Development & Creative Financing in Real Estate
Prepare for an inspiring session that goes beyond traditional real estate development. We’ll hear from an industry expert whose work focuses on a critical challenge: creating equitable housing opportunities for individuals often shut out of the current market. Discover how innovative approaches, particularly owner financing, can be powerful tools for inclusion. Get a firsthand look into the development of a brand-new tiny home community, a tangible example of building sustainable, accessible, and community-focused living spaces. If you’re interested in how real estate can be a force for positive social impact and tangible opportunity, this discussion is essential.
We are offering the meeting HyFlex, so you may choose to join us either in person or virtually on Zoom. Light refreshments will be served. This will be the last real estate club meeting of this semester as the next one will happen in Fall of 2025. If you would like to be an Officer for the 2025 Real Estate Club, please email [email protected] for details.
This is an invaluable opportunity to gain practical knowledge and make your real estate goals a reality. Don’t miss it!
