NIL Real Estate piloted a program with BYU in 2022 that
allowed athletes access to the necessary education to buy a home, invest in real estate or pursue a career in real estate. Interested students can take advantage of on-demand courses and test prep if they want to pursue their real estate license. To date, more than 650 students at more than 180 schools have opted into the program. Seventeen athletes are already working full-time in real estate, and another eight have their referral license. Gary Veron, associate athletics director for student-athlete experience/NIL at BYU, and Carl Spencer, co-founder and CEO, NIL Real Estate, joined host Kristi Dosh, founder of Business of College Sports, to discuss in more detail how this program works, including some great stories of athletes who've taken advantage of it.
