Episode 12 - Looking Back On Getting Started, A Conversation With A Former Newbie

Episode 12 of the Smarter Landlording Podcast features the very first guest I ever interviewed, Jenna Stonecipher-Williamson. Back when we first talked Jenna was just getting started in real estate and was knee deep in repairs and finding tenants. Now almost five years later, Jenna is still in real estate and going strong. In this episode we discuss what went right, what went no so right and if she would do it all again. A newbie no more, Jenna shares some valuable insights and demonstrates that becoming successful in real estate can be done, just not perhaps in the way you thought it would.  

Listen to hear Jenna and I discuss:

• · What she did to move into real estate full time.
• · Where real estate took her, from selling high end homes to new construction.
• · How you have to follow your market.
• · Lessons she has learned, especially when talking about her business.
• · The many hats a real estate investor has to wear.
• · Finding tenants and tenant screening red flags.
• · Lessons she has learned.
• · Advice for the newbie from a former one.

Getting started in real estate investing never quite goes the way you think it will.
Listen in as Jenna describes where here journey in real estate took her.
