Becoming an Entrepreneur in Real Estate

By Chris Arnold

From pro basketball to real estate success

This episode features John Pugh, Owner of Pugh Management.

John is a seasoned real estate executive who has found success during a career spanning two-plus decades in the design, construction, and development arenas. He leads teams to thriving project outcomes, identifies new acquisition opportunities, and is responsible for creative deal structuring.

Today, Pugh Management focuses on creating value for investors and partners through placemaking, risk management, and creative problem-solving.

Two fun facts about John: he played professional basketball in Australia, and his artwork was exhibited at the Guggenheim Museum in New York and internationally.
