How This Attorney Went from Billing Hours to Owning Over A Million in Assets with Stephanie Cabral Dec 20, 2018

Show notes

Stephanie is a buy and hold investor of single family homes and duplexes in central Connecticut. She unknowingly discovered investing in 2012 when she bought and renovated a condemned duplex despite hefty student loans and a modest salary. Since she began intentionally investing in 2015, she's acquired 2 buy and hold properties each year, has done one flip, and one joint venture. All of her acquisitions require renovations and her projects have ranged from $15k-$160k in rehab. Stephanie has used 203k financing, hard money, private money, a partnership, conventional and commercial loans, and the equity recapture method (known to many as the BRRRR strategy). She is a lawyer by trade that turned to real estate to improve her quality of life. She also joined Colliers International as a commercial real estate agent to facilitate this transition. Her slow and steady investing has paid off. She currently has $1.4 million in assets and is proud of her portfolio's vacancy rate of less than 1%, which she attributes to effective tenant selection and management, efficient renovations, and desirable properties. Stephanie is intimately involved in animal rescue with Double Dog Rescue and is active in her spare time, playing volleyball year round, camping, etc. On today’s episode, we discuss a ton with Stephanie, including: How newbies can move through the fear of doing your first rehab project How to mitigate the mistakes on the first deal Importance of leveraging everyone strengths around you How to best vet an attorney for your real estate transactions How to create a vacancy rate of less than 1% Best apps and strategies to automate your business #1 tip to have success with a virtual assistant Reach out: Website: http://www.sunrisebuyshouses.com/ Via email: Stephanie@SunriseBuysHouses.com Resources/Books: The Emyth by Michael Gerber https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0887307280?pf_rd_p=c2945051-950f-485c-b4df-15aac5223b10&pf_rd_r=SATFS6J8C03B1FEV6HG9 Outsourcing / Automation Sites Paying Rent – www.payyourrent.com Podio – www.podio.com Soapbox - https://wistia.com/soapbox InvestHER Community Join us on our mission to support and empower as many women as we can to live a financially free and balanced life.

(MINISODE) What I Learned from Converting a Commercial Building to a Triplex with Liz & Andresa Dec 14, 2018

Show notes

Welcome back to another MINIsode of the Real Estate InvestHER Show. These MINISODE episodes will be 10 minutes or less and be a real life story from Liz or Andresa! On this week’s episode, Andresa shares a story when bought a commercial building off market. This building was zoned commercial on the first floor and had two residential apartments above the storefront space. Due to the changes in the community, Andresa knew she would need to convert it to residential. As many have experienced, the zoning process can be a challenging and frustrating process, but she navigated the process and was finally able to convert the building to a triplex. Today’s minisode lessons include: Build a relationship with the community and seek to understand where they are coming from. Ask for what you want. You may not get it all but you need to ask for what you want -always! Get team members that know the process involved immediately. Our local attorney had done zoning changes several times so he was able to navigate to the process easily and our architect was aware of what the community might ask. Before purchasing the building, run the numbers for different scenarios. In this case, we ran the numbers as a residential triplex and a mixed-use building, in case the zoning was not approved. Both scenarios made financial sense, which reduced our risk.InvestHER CommunityJoin us on our mission to support and empower as many women as we can to live a financially free and balanced life.
