🏢 Buildings may create a property, but people create a community.

 📞 Use communication to solve problems quickly and limit property damage
 🤝 Maintained resident relationships during the isolation of COVID
 🔍 Combined experience and creativity to locate and stop a serious property issue
 👏 Make employees feel supported, appreciated, and recognized
 🐶 Build resident loyalty by learning not only residents’ names, but their pets’ names too

 • LeiLani Gray — Research, Huntsville

🏢 FROM AN UNEXPECTED CAREER TURN… TO BUILDING CYPRESSBROOK | Ep. 1 Speed, Skill & Stewardship

What do you do when your career suddenly takes an unexpected turn… with four blondes at home who still expect to eat every day? 

You build something.

In Episode 1 of Speed, Skill & Stewardship, Andy sits down with Cypressbrook founder Mike for a candid conversation about the journey that built the company.

From growing up in Houston and attending Rice University to working in private equity and moving his family to Austin and Chicago, Mike shares the career turns, risks, setbacks, and opportunities that ultimately led him to build Cypressbrook.

But this episode goes far beyond Cypressbrook's beginnings.

Mike talks about:

🏢 Building Cypressbrook from the ground up
 📉 Navigating the 2008 financial crisis
 🌪️ Dealing with Hurricane Ike while managing a 20-story office complex
 🏘️ Moving into the multifamily investment business
 🏗️ Growing into ground-up development
 🏠 The creation of the Ariza brand
🤝 Why long-term relationships matter
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Building a team that has stayed together for decades
💰 What it means to be a true steward of investors' capital
📈 Where Cypressbrook sees opportunity in today's market
🚀 And what the future holds for the company

At the heart of it all are three words:

SPEED. SKILL. STEWARDSHIP.

Speed means having a bias toward action.

Skill means knowing what you're doing.

And stewardship means taking seriously what has been entrusted to you, including the capital of the families who invest alongside Cypressbrook.

🎙️ Episode 1 is the story of where Cypressbrook came from, and a look at where it's going.
