My favorite piece of real estate would have to be friends grandmother's house. It is located in Houston, Texas in the woodlands. It is so fascinating to me because I saw stage of them building it. I was able to see all of the blue prints and the empty land before they started building. The next time I went to see it, they had started putting the wood framing up and they took me through all the rooms, telling me what each was going to be. It was hard to imagine the final product because to me it just looked like a bunch of boards sticking up. The final time I went back to the property, it was all complete with the furniture and everything. Through this process I was able to see how much work and detail goes into designing and building a house, it took them 5 years total. Also, as you can see from the video it is the most extravagant house that I have ever been in. It was a great experience and is what sparked my interest in real estate.
My name is Meagan Haak and I am from San Antonio, Texas. I am a finance major and will graduation in May of 2014! I have a younger brother who attends the University of Texas, so we have a big rivalry in our family. I like to hang out with my friends, and I am a huge fan of Netflix. I'm not really sure what kind of job I want when I graduate, so I am hoping that this class will help me in deciding if real estate is something I am interested in. My short term goal would be to graduate and find a job. My long term goals would be to continually move up in my profession, and of course to have a family. Going to Greece is on the top of my bucket list. Hopefully I can be blessed with a job that allows me to travel around the world. My favorite websites are mostly popular ones such as pandora.com and pinterest.com. I can't wait for all I am going to learn through this class.
