What happens when you grow up in a family of renters… but decide to rewrite the narrative?

In this episode of Real Estate Explained, host Nick Bush sits down with Ramy from the Cornerstone Realty Group—former neuroscience student turned full-time real estate agent in Northern Virginia who shares how he went from a renter mindset to building a real estate investment portfolio, with a goal of owning 10 properties by the age of 30.

We dive into what first-time homebuyers and Gen Z buyers really need to know about the buying process, why renting vs. owning is about more than just money, and how to make smart moves even without generational wealth. Rami breaks down the psychology behind renting, the flexibility that comes with homeownership, and why building equity early is a game-changer.

You'll also hear how transaction coordinators free up time for agents, what makes the DMV housing market so stable, and tips for self-managing rental properties without burning out.

If you're a first-gen homeowner, young investor, or just someone trying to make sense of the current market, this conversation delivers real talk, strategy, and inspiration to help you make bold moves in real estate.

🎧 Tap play and learn how to break the cycle, build equity, and create your own real estate success story.
