George Washington was the first president to stay in the real estate business. Washington may have even gotten into much closer personal relationships with business partners.

Opinion | George Washington was the first president to stay in the real estate business
As president, Washington not only supervised his real estate business, but also contacted foreigners with government ties to help him. This sheds some light on arguments that the Trump Organization's hotel business violates the Constitution's foreign emoluments clause.
