<p>From college roommates at Quinnipiac to co-founders of a thriving Texas-based real estate company, Bobby Tyson and Loren Barron join <em>Pucks to Properties</em> to share how blind faith, hustle, and a few Craigslist deals laid the foundation for Eastwood Realty.</p><p>In this episode, they walk us through their early days — from flipping furniture and living in a warehouse, to building custom homes, cold-calling prospects, and eventually growing a diverse real estate portfolio across development, brokerage, and property management. With no formal background and everything on the line (including their wedding funds), Bobby and Loren built a business rooted in resilience, shared vision, and a relentless work ethic learned on the ice.</p><p>They also break down how they’ve tapped into the hockey community for networking, talent, and even future investment opportunities — proving that life after hockey can be just as dynamic and fulfilling as life on the rink.</p><p>Connect with Loren &amp; Bobby:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/eastwoodrealty/?hl=en">Instagram (@eastwoodrealty)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-tyson-1537a1138/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-tyson-1537a1138/</a></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/loren100/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/loren100/</a></p><p><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p><p><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p><p>__</p><p>Pucks to Properties is powered by REVA Global Virtual Assistant Services.
