Raleigh’s culture and burgeoning economy has reinforced his love of North Carolina. He graduated from States’ Poole College of Management Cum Laude and has thrived in the Triangle ever since. READ MORE +

His appreciation for commercial real estate grew while still a student at State. Brant worked “hands-on” for a local developer as an assistant in their marketing and leasing endeavors. The training he received proved to be a pivotal experience which introduced him to the exciting world of investment real estate.

He learned several portfolio strategies and techniques from his father and was determined to challenge himself by handling a multimillion-dollar portfolio. While working with a national broker/dealer he earned his Series 7 and Series 66 and through his relationships, contacts, and tenacious analysis, grew his assets under management to over $30 million dollars. Having achieved his goal of increased financial acumen Brant refocused on real estate, his true passion.

He developed a special interest in commercial construction and began to fully understand the building process. Brant became the All-Time Top Producer at the Cary, North Carolina location where he set three individual sales records. Fueled by a desire to develop his own properties, Brant pursued working for a local development and investment firm downtown Raleigh as a commercial real estate broker.  Brant’s unique knowledge of investments and construction helped him thrive in the industry as he was quickly able to identify and procure both multifamily housing development sites and value-add opportunities. After facilitating several highly successful transactions, he and his esteemed partner, Jack Farritor, established Bull & Oak Properties. They stand committed to identifying lucrative initiatives while building long-term client relationships through the provision of consistent accessibility, trust, and results.
