#157 🌴 From Florida to Syracuse: Real Estate, Friendship & George the Alligator

On this Brews & Banter “podcast with friends” episode, Roman and Frank welcome a crew that feels like family: Catherine and Blake, visiting all the way from Florida, plus Catherine’s sister Jessica, a young entrepreneur from Syracuse who’s already making moves in real estate investing. (Jessica’s boyfriend hung out off-camera — shy but present for the chaos 😄) Over a round of drinks, we catch up on how we met, how life has evolved, and where our careers have taken us. Catherine and Blake share what it’s like working as real estate agents in Florida, while Catherine still keeps her NYS license active and closes deals up north. Jessica jumps in with her own journey — starting young, buying investment properties, and reaching out to Roman for advice, guidance, and the occasional hands-on help.We also revisit our Florida trip, including the legendary moment we met Catherine and Blake’s pet alligator, George, who definitely deserves his own guest credit someday.A fun, easygoing episode full of laughs, stories, career talk, and friendships that stretch across states. Grab a drink and hang out with us!
