Collin Albanese, Senior, Finance major

Second Place

Congratulations to all the teams!

This competition would not have happened without the hard work of Salvatore Zotti (Senior, Finance major), co-founder of the Real Estate Club, who put this competition together for the first time last year! A huge thank you to our amazing group of sponsors who not only sponsored the prize money for the competition, but also their time in judging and working with the students.
