Have you ever felt I coulda, woulda, shoulda bought some rental properties after the 2008 housing collapse? Prices were so low it was like getting a 75% discount in many cases! But it’s always easier to see what you should’ve done instead of what you might want to do right now. The truth is that when you're in it, you can't see it as clearly. So what are the signs you should look for to recognize those opportunities happening right now, and follow up with smart, timely decisions? In this episode, you’ll hear from Brenda Coleman who’s our latest Real Wealth Story guest. She's been investing for 17 years and got her start in 2009 when other potential investors were in panic mode. How did she know it was a good time to buy? And what's she looking for today? She’ll answer those questions and share a mindset about real estate that has worked for her over the years. Brenda’s first property was the building of a spec home in Oregon with her husband in 2006. Since then, she’s built more spec homes, done some flips, invested in land, and bought some buy-and-hold properties. She currently owns investment property in 14 states and has replaced her income as a social worker with cash flow from her investments.
