Hi!
I'm a former 9th-grade dropout and welfare mom who discovered the power of real estate and through it transformed my life.
Today, I'm a real estate broker with a law degree who doesn't represent clients or practice law. :)
I have ownership interests in commercial, office, residential and multi-family properties.
In my real life, I'm an author, consultant, and coach in the women's empowerment space. My passion is helping people start over after loss (divorce, death, bankruptcy, etc.).
I've worked in commercial and residential brokerages, developed condominiums, built and rehabbed, SFRs, partitioned land, participated in REO auctions, and I lend private money. And I'm super excited about a recent investment with @Joe Fairless.
I love to learn and I'm happy to help whenever I can.
Hi @Ray Johnson thank you! I read your profile. How are you finding the transition from big deals to your own portfolio? Are you doing any of the crowdfunding REIT investments? I'm super curious to know what you found interesting coming from your history.
@Cynthia Occelli I'm actually still doing some of the larger Institutional deals on the W2 side of the fence. Personal portfolio I like to stay diversified, I'm doing small properties for my own buy-and-hold portfolio, I also participate in Syndications, typically through Sponsors I've worked with on the institutional side that have started their own companies. I haven't done any crowdfunding, I often see mixed results so that's made me a little cautious of their platforms, I like what @Jesse Stein and his team out of Manhattan, NY are doing in that space, I like the team behind the company.
What do you like best about Joe Fairless and the Ashcroft Capital team?
