Meet Corina Cordova, CCIM
Fueled by her passion, Corina became a master at balancing between a successful career and family. Corina’s first transaction of her commercial real estate career was valued at $1.5 million, which she saw as a divine opportunity that she was on the right path. Since that pivotal event, she embarked on a successful real estate venture piquing her interest in real estate with an acquisition and disposition volume of over $324 million in closed transactions and leasing several million square feet of retail and industrial space in Texas. Her credentialing includes licensing by the Texas Real Estate Commission and a Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM).
