My Bio

Brie embarked on her real estate journey in 2011, making her initial foray into the realm of property investment. By 2014, she made a decisive transition from the corporate world to become a dedicated full-time real estate investor. Her strategic focus led her to assemble a diverse portfolio, primarily consisting of 2-4 unit properties in the vibrant markets of Chicago and Milwaukee, culminating in the management of nearly 100 units.

As the astute Managing Broker of Second City Real Estate, Brie spearheads a premier brokerage firm tailored for investors by investors. Boasting an extensive network of investor clients, the firm excels in the swift and lucrative sale of properties.

Offering comprehensive services, Second City Real Estate stands as the go-to brokerage for all landlord needs.

The two-day summit is designed to provide attendees with valuable insights through panel discussions, presentations, breakouts, and structured networking opportunities. Attendees can organically connect with industry peers, gain access to top-level strategies, and depart with a focused determination to elevate their real estate portfolios.
