Annie Eugster
Annie Eugster
Annie was born and raised in the wilds of Spokane, Washington. Looking to live in the big city, and preferably one where she would never have to shovel snow again, she moved to Seattle in 2008 to attend the University of Washington. Graduating with a degree in Art History, she naturally went on to become a barista. After years of slinging espresso, selling furniture, and some odd jobs here and there, she finally began her career working at Real Property Associates. She has worked both in the real estate and property management departments at RPA. She now works on the growth of Real Property Associates, by finding the best owners and properties to bring onboard!
