Her First House

“It usually starts with a glass of wine.” From never having used a screwdriver to owning four tile saws, my friends Greg and Sabrina have transformed themselves into DIY home renovation experts. In this hilarious episode, they chat about tackling big home projects head-on, buying houses with VA loans, bidets, budgets, and building massive equity by renovating their homes themselves. Plus, they share their top tips for anyone looking to fix up their homes. Bonus: Check out my Instagram (@realestatewitheti) for some incredible "before" and "after" shots of Greg and Sabrina’s projects!

"I was tuned in to the most popular radio station on earth, WIIFM." Chuck Glover started investing in real estate at age 70, after going from being an educator to stacking shelves at a big box store. In less than 5 years, his mindset, generosity, and hard work helped him turn his situation around. In this conversation, Chuck and I talk about the insidiousness of excuses, his formula for massive achievement, wrap lending, and the mindset that changed his life.

"Fear and imposter syndrome are just part of the process." I'm really excited to share my incredible conversation with Michelle Miralles, a wholesaler who is accomplishing awesome things in VA.

We talked about how Michelle is able to ace her responsibilities as a mom, a business owner and a wholesaler by valuing her time and managing it intentionally.

We also talked about the way she built her courage and prepared her mind to start wholesaling, how she's developed a niche with the Spanish speaking community, and how to think creatively when setting up deals (both for wholesalers and buyers).
