What does real estate leadership actually look like in today’s market?
In this episode of Did It Close?, we sit down with Elisabeth Soose, owner-operator and President of the Apartment Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh (AAMP), to talk about leadership, advocacy, and what it really takes to operate in the multifamily space today.
Elisabeth shares her unconventional journey from physical therapy to real estate, and how a move to the UK completely reshaped her perspective on housing, community, and the role real estate plays in people’s lives. From there, we dive into her work with AAMP, including how the organization supports property owners, advocates on legislative issues, and builds a strong network across the Pittsburgh real estate community.
We also explore:
💡 The real role of apartment associations (and why they matter more than you think)
💡 How property owners can engage with local government and legislation
💡 The challenges of public perception in the rental housing industry
💡 Why empathy is a critical leadership skill in real estate
💡 How AAMP is making an impact through charitable initiatives like the Homeless Children’s Education Fund
One of the biggest takeaways? Real estate isn’t just about properties—it’s about people.
As Elisabeth puts it: “Housing is emotional.”
If you’re a broker, investor, owner, or anyone working in commercial or multifamily real estate, this episode is packed with insights on leadership, communication, and building a lasting impact in your market.
