QOTW: What holds you back as a female investor?
We have found that so many reasons hold women back from investing in real estate or scaling their portfolio. Some reasons include time, money, knowledge, or even confidence. These reasons can hold us back to living a financially free and balanced life. Our team at the Real Estate InvestHER is 1000% committed to pushing past these "reasons" and creating a bright future for all women across the globe so they can live life on their OWN terms.
So what holds YOU back?

Right now, it's capital and inventory. Overwhelming competition with big fish. Analysis paralysis. Being a beginner investor. Time (Being a single working mom). Risk.
Other than all that, I'm ready to pull the trigger with the small amount of capital I have if the opportunity makes sense.
