Many partnerships and deals are done not at a computer, not by just sitting there listening to a monologue, but by meeting people in person.
Our goal is to help connect you with exactly who you're looking for in an intimate and fun environment.

No pressure, no pitches, just friends with a common passion to share stories, successes, and more.

Please invite local investors!!!

You should join us if you're:

  • Looking for deals
  • Staring at a deal right now
  • Looking for others like you
  • Seeking tricks /tips from others
  • Looking for a partner / mentor
  • Looking to build your network
  • Thinking of getting into real estate
  • Seeking hard money
  • Sitting on money and want to invest it
  • Looking to bounce ideas off of other real estate investors

for questions, DM Brenda on Instagram: @brendachen.re

@Dana Dunford is the CEO of Hemlane, a venture-backed property management platform. She is a strong advocate of purchasing properties anywhere, as the best investments are not typically in your backyard. She supports real estate investors in setting up the most intelligent process to manage rentals from a distance, while connecting them with local, licensed professionals.

## In 2018, Dana was named one of the top 20 women leaders and influencers in commercial real estate tech. Dana previously worked at Apple on their worldwide financial planning and analysis team and at Nest, the home technology company acquired by Google for $3.2B, in business development. She received her MBA from Harvard Business School.

## In her free time, Dana is an avid equestrian, paraglider, and skier. She is the first woman to win a calf dressing championship belt buckle at the CA Rodeo. She takes risks in her personal life but spends her work life advocating technology and prudent spending for a risk-mitigated solution to real estate management.

0 to Multiple 7 Figures: How to Start and Scale Your Real Estate Venture with Elisa Covington, CEO of Transform Real Estate

About the Speaker:

Elisa Covington is a real estate investor in the San Francisco Bay Area. She is the Founder and CEO of Transform Real Estate Investments, LLC, a Bay Area local Real Estate Solutions Company that purchases and improves all types of homes in various conditions and locations.

In 2017, Elisa transitioned out of a comfortable, good paying 9-5 job to a full-time investor. With 40 completed projects, she became her own boss and managed to work fewer hours but make many times more than her old W2 income. She’s been making a 7-figure profit every year since 2019.

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.

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 real estate. She started a Youtube Channel (Youtube.com/TransformRealEstate) to teach people to invest in real estate and achieve financial freedom, and now has over 50K subscribers.

Elisa was born and raised in Beijing, China. After working for Google China briefly, she came to the US 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 appeal to buyers. When she isn’t prospecting new properties or supervising on projects, she loves hiking, swimming and traveling. She has been to over 20 countries in 6 continents.

You can follow her on Instagram @transformrealestate where she shares remodeling tips & tricks and before & after photos and subscribe to her Youtube channel (Youtube.com/TransformRealEstate) to learn about real estate investing and home remodeling.

Start the weekend off right! Join us for our monthly coffee meeting; this event will be held in-person! Coffee & treats from Ritual Coffee will be provided.
This is an opportunity to mingle with fellow local investors in an informal setting (rather than an office in the FiDi). No agenda, no sales pitches, no Powerpoint slides or handouts!
Co-Hosted by @Houston Garcia of Sotheby's Realty International & Brenda Chen of Conventus Lending.
