Season 5 - Episode 5: I have never been in real estate. My background is in engineering, and I had managed very large multinationals industrial companies. A lot of my time was spent on building materials. However, very interestingly, through a friend, I was introduced to our founder-CEO, whose name is Aaron Levy. He lives in Austin, Texas, and he's an architect-designer. He's always had this idea of coming up with something for what's known as a middle market. It's basically people who are renting today, but not ready to buy a house. However, they want some independent living, such as a little bit of a yard and patio, and do not want to be attached to somebody else top or bottom. This is considered a middle housing concept and he's always been interested in it. I think during COVID we saw the level of depression and loneliness going up because a lot of people living in buildings had no community connections. And that's what kind of drove us.
