Today on the She Buys It Podcast, Whitney sits down with Rita Medeiros. Rita started as a stock investor and moved on to become a real estate investor who helps women. She's a full-time psychiatric nurse by trade, but she also runs her real estate investing business!
Rita fell into real estate investing. One day, she was thinking about her retirement when she made that fateful phone call to social security. She wanted to know how much she'd be entitled to after working steadily for all of her life. The answer? A whopping $2,000 a month. She couldn't believe it. Even though she had done all the correct things, like going to college, buying a good home, and investing in her 401K, she knew she couldn't live on that. She knew she had to find some passive income.
So she jumped into real estate with both feet. She bought 21 homes in just 11 months. She's created passive income and generational wealth for her kids.
Join Whitney and Rita as they discuss using real estate as passive income, generational wealth, helping moms through real estate, and getting out of analysis paralysis on this gold nugget-filled podcast.
Rita's advice for ladies who want to get started in real estate:
"Get plugged in. Find your local REIA and your local InvestHer group. Get around other like-minded people, that is the greatest incentive. Become self-educated. Get into Bigger Pockets. Listen to a podcast. Read some books. But get plugged in somehow and get around others that are actually doing it. Take action and never quit, and your bank account will grow."
