Background & Experience
Brent grew up in the Columbia/Lake Murray area in a Real Estate Family. He gained early exposure to SFR Development and Multifamily Rentals. Recognizing the need for financial knowledge he was guided to a BS in Accounting degree from Newberry College. After a number of years in North Carolina, Brent returned to South Carolina where he created a major commercial glass subcontracting company, Phoenix Contract Glass. That start-up from scratch was an amazing challenge requiring knowledge of many different disciplines. Brent then returned to his roots in real estate while being a family caregiver. He enjoys working with small businesses and entrepreneurs to be extremely rewarding.
