Speaker: Elisa Covington

About the Meeting: At this meeting Elisa Covington will tell how she went from eager newbie 2 years ago to crushing it in the Bay Area as a full time real estate investor. Elisa will share how she accumulated capital by seizing opportunities in a market downturn and owning rental properties. She will talk about the strategies she uses to find deals (without spending money on marketing!), her buying criteria, how she is funding her deals, and how she made almost $300,000 from 1 deal!

About the Speaker: Elisa Covington is a real estate investor/ house flipper in the San Francisco Bay Area. She is the Founder and CEO of Transform Real Estate Investments, LLC & Transform Investments, Inc., two Bay Area local Real Estate Solutions Companies that purchase and improve all types of homes in various conditions and locations.

In a short period, Elisa transitioned out of a comfortable, good paying 9-5 job to a full-time house flipper. With 8 completed flips, 1 wholesale, and 2 projects in progress, she became her own boss and managed to work fewer hours but make many times more than her old W2 income. After just 2 years in business, Elisa has done a total of $24MM worth of real estate transactions.

In 2012, Elisa started her investing journey by purchasing, remodeling, house hacking and owning furnished rentals in San Francisco. She has done a DIY remodel with her husband and also managed rental properties on her own. She accumulated capital by seizing opportunities in a market downturn and selling with high appreciation.

Elisa enjoys helping people and sharing her knowledge with others. She currently mentors a few aspiring investors and hopes to empower more women to get started in the flip business.

Elisa was born and raised in Beijing, China. After working for Google China briefly, she came to the US in 2008 to pursue her MBA at Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. Elisa loves to design her own flips and use unique design features to attract buyers. When she isn’t prospecting new houses or supervising on projects, she loves hiking, swimming and traveling. She has been to over 20 countries in 5 continents.
