John became involved in residential real estate after receiving formal training in architecture at Tulane University, marketing at the University of Maryland and Business Administration at George Washington University. After several years in the automotive testing and business information fields, he entered real estate and directed residential conversions and real estate brokerage for three of New York's premier firms before founding Atco Residential Group in 1997.
