Good to be Green

[Jessica Coté]

Hi all- 

My name is Jess and I'm in NC about thirty minutes south of Raleigh.  I've been a silversmith for seventeen years but am really wanting a life and career shift that offers additional fulfillment and financial security.... no built-in retirement plans for us artists!

I have a gutted carriage house on the back of my property, so my thought is to get my feet wet with house hacking by creating space for a longterm tenant. I also have significant equity in my home, which I believe gives me a HELOC option for acquiring my first property to BRRRR or flip once I feel educated enough to do so.

The BP podcast has already taught me so much, and I'm gratefully here hoping to learn, share, and apply all you amazing people have to teach.  While I can definitely swing a hammer, I know there's a lot I don't know about this world and how to grow it into a successful business -  I'm really looking forward to being a part of the  group and putting in the work to build something significant in more ways than one!
