The Real Estate Club of the Martin J.

The Real Estate Club at Syracuse University is the fastest-growing club in the Whitman School. The club was established to provide a forum for students with an interest in real estate to lean more about the industry. The areas of real estate that are covered by guest speakers and site visits include architecture, construction, development, finance, law, management and sales. The club was established last semester. Whitman senior Justin Sutter is the club president, and Yildiray Yildirim, assistant professor of finance, is the faculty advisor.
