HOW A STRUGGLING REAL ESTATE INVESTOR BECAME THE CO-FOUNDER OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL… STEVEN ROSENBERG
In 2014 we were finalists for the Business Excellence Award for best Marketing and Best Customer Service and
this year we were a finalist in 4 categories (CEO of the Year, Best Customer Based, Best Customer Service and
Best Marketing). We won Best Marketing Campaign in North America with a return of 1474% on our marketing
investment dollars along with complete rebranding of our company and earning the most positive reviews on the
internet than any other management company in the Houston area. We recently won a prestigious Better
Business Bureau award as well. My business partner was the president of the Houston chapter of NARPM, as
well as being on the board for HAR (Houston Association Realtors). I have been fortunate to be invited to speak
to different investing groups around the country, including Canada and have been guests on many radio and
podcast shows. And was just asked to consider being part of a TV reality show helping people in our old
situation. Because I am still an airline pilot and fly internationally I am able to meet with investing groups and
individuals around the globe to enhance our presence with investor clients. I also traveled to Australia as an
international guest speaker to top tier property management companies on my expertise in the industry.
I

truly
is
an
entrepreneurs story, I would not only
like to share it, but think that I can
add
value
success,
from
but
not
more
only
my
importantly
discussing our failures along the
way and how we overcame them.
We have doubled our revenue and
tripled our size year over year and
in 2016 we were nominated for
several Business Excellence Forum
awards such as Best Marketing
Campaign, CEO of the Year, Best
Company Culture and many more.
Due to Empire’s overwhelming success, we are growing at an exceptional rate. We have recently opened a
second satellite office in the Clear Lake Area of Houston, we have hired additional staff to manage the increase
in properties that we are taking on and our employees and company continue to receive awards.
Also in 2016, our company received another Better Business Bureau Business of Distinction Award, the
Marketing Department was named one of the top 20 Bloggers in Real Estate across the country and our
Business Development Team won a Business Development Manager of the Year award.
