Unapologetic Book by Cassy Williamson

• How Brittney went from librarian to leading 125+ agents in a thriving Texas brokerage—starting with zero real estate experience.
• Why “borrowing belief” is a secret weapon in business growth (and how to use it).
• The real formula for success: Massive action + unwavering faith (and how to build both).
• Brittney’s mindset toolkit for leadership, momentum, and avoiding burnout.
• Tactical advice on time blocking, tracking lead gen, and building integrity with yourself—not just your clients.

Brittney is the dynamic broker and owner of BK Real Estate, a company she founded in 2023 to support the growth and success of other agents. Over the last several years, Brittney has achieved and surpassed personal goals in both her production and skill set, viewing each transaction as a valuable opportunity for growth.

Prior to embarking on her real estate journey, Brittney was a dedicated school librarian in various ISDs across Texas. She cherished the joy of teaching and helping students develop a love for reading. As a single mother to two amazing kids, she decided to expand her horizons by starting a part-time real estate career. Balancing her roles as a teacher by day and a real estate agent by evening, Brittney found herself selling a diverse range of properties, including commercial buildings, residential properties, tenant representation, and multifamily units. After two years of managing both careers, she took the bold step to leave education and fully commit to real estate, a decision that paid off significantly.

With more time at her disposal, Brittney was able to reach more clients and achieve greater personal goals. Her interest in investing led her to follow the BiggerPockets podcast, inspiring her to grow her own portfolio. Today, she owns 11 doors, a mix of short- and long-term rentals, and is a part-owner in a mortgage branch. Brittney’s passion for building her portfolio has ignited a new goal: to help as many clients and agents as possible grow their own assets.

In addition to her professional achievements, Brittney is an active member of her Keller community, particularly involved in the PTA. Her dedication to her community and her family is as strong as her commitment to her career. Whether clients are looking to buy a personal home, invest in multifamily properties, house hack, wholesale, flip, use creative financing, or grow their rental portfolio, Brittney and her team at BK Real Estate are ready to help.

• How Joao went from buying one duplex a year to owning 92 properties in just three years — all through strategic networking, mentorship, and the BRRRR method.
• How joining masterminds and attending live events help overcome introversion and build partnerships that accelerated his success.
• Why multifamily buildings can actually be simpler to renovate and scale than single-family homes.
• How Joao uses syndications to offer passive income opportunities for investors — and how he de-risks deals before ever bringing them to market.
• How real estate professionals can go beyond transactions by expanding their knowledge and networks to serve clients’ long-term wealth-building goals.

I’m Joao Macavilca, CEO and Founder of Start to Finish Capital. Growing up in challenging circumstances in New Jersey, I was raised by undocumented parents in a modest attic, an experience that shaped my resilience and ambition. Despite starting with minimal resources, I climbed the corporate ladder to become a National Operations Manager, gaining expertise in leadership, logistics, and process improvement.

Inspired by 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' I transitioned into real estate, embracing the BRRRR method to grow my portfolio and establish a construction company with commercial general contractor licenses in multiple states. From residential flips to securing a 54-unit commercial property, my journey is marked by perseverance, learning from mistakes, and building a legacy.
