Joining me on the podcast today is Amy Mahjoory. Amy is a long-time friend that I met through a real estate education program called Fortune Builders. She signed up for the Fortune Builders program back in 2012, but she didn’t do anything with it until 2014. She was still working for Dell at the time and decided to flip two properties to make some extra cash as a side hustle while trying to get her dream job with Nike. Surprisingly, things started to snowball, and she ended up buying, renovating, and selling ten properties in her first year…and genuinely fell in love with the business. Guess what happened next? In 2015, Amy became a full-time real estate investor! How awesome is that? In this episode, Amy shares how she started her incredible journey to financial freedom through real estate that changed her life from working for someone else, trying to climb the corporate ladder, to becoming her own boss in the industry. She’s now rocking the real estate world helping thousands of real estate investors all over the country raise private money for their businesses.
