Lauren and Mary discuss Mary and her husband's real estate journey, in which the research phase started in 2019! If you think the market is too high to invest in, then you must listen to this episode! They have purchased 7 properties between March 2020 and late 2021. They're cash flowing, they're renovating, they're buying off-market deals. Mary's advice is this: don't wait to invest because you'll miss out on years of EXPERIENCE.


Mary is a real estate investor based in the Tampa Bay area (like Lauren). She grew up in Florida, attended UF and got a degree in Education. Mary taught for 7 years in Europe and Asia, and for 5 years in the US before changing careers to advising medical students. When Mary was 34, she had her first child, and quickly realized that she and her husband weren’t prepared for retirement, and they wanted a different life than the grind of a 9-5. They decided to invest in real estate and build up a portfolio that would support them in retirement and pay for their kids’ college.
