Pro Investor from Charlotte, NC
Hello BP, my name is Nechelle Vanias and I'm originally from New York City. I've been in Charlotte, NC for almost seven years. I'm an ADD Mompreneur with 5 kids ages 2 1/2 to 12 1/2.
I started investing in NY ten years ago by selling properties on eBay. And now we invest primarily in the Carolinas. I work with investors to build portfolios mostly with off market residential and commercial deals. I've completed well over four hundred transactions.
We use private money for our fix and flips and sell fully rented to buy and hold investors. In fact, we vet the tenant first and let them choose from a few houses that work for our numbers. So on the day we finish renovations, we have a tenant moving in. Always looking to condense the timeframe to exit on a deal.
My goal in real estate is to build twenty thousand dollars in passive income from residential and commercial investments. To build trust funds for each of my kids with appreciating real estate holdings. And to help new investors go big or go home because the only true learning comes from doing...
We also own a medical spa in Charlotte, NC where we do pain free laser hair removal, other cosmetic lasers and Botox. We're building that brand as the only membership based medical spa.
I have a lot on my plate but wouldn't have it any other way.
Glad to be a part of this community. Thanks.

Thanks @Jon Klaus. Our properties typically range in price from $60,000 to $99,000 and the rents from $600 to $900 per month. We don't provide property management directly, we use highly qualified local area property managers as our properties are in the Columbia, SC Metro area to the Charlotte, NC Metro area.
