    Kristie LeSage didn’t mind her 9-5 much before she went on a hiking trip to Yosemite. When she turned her phone off for a few days, hung out with friends, and spent time in nature, she realized that she wanted more freedom in her life. After that hiking trip, she returned home to her husband and told him it was time for her to quit. The problem? She didn’t know how she was going to make money when she left her job.
    After doing some options trading and making money off of it, she made the decision to leave her job by the end of summer 2019. While she was trading, her husband was getting into the BiggerPockets community, and through some of her husband’s suggestions, Kristie found another way to make money. In August of 2019, they closed on a 4-plex in San Diego. A year and a half later, Kristie and her husband have an impressive 24 doors!
    Kristie walks through the benefits and struggles of owning multifamily properties both in and out of state. She also talks about the different types of funding she used in order to get them under contract, including conventional loans, HELOCs (home equity lines of credit), and commercial loans. Even without a W2 or 2 years of 1099 income, Kristie proves it’s possible to start your real estate journey regardless of where you’re at.

    I work in sales for the largest hospitality company in the word and her message hits close to home for me. My wife and I just bought our first multi family. I look forward to being in the same shoes as Kristie and her husband!

    I wouldn’t recommend a lockbox when doing a turnover. People are either not knowledgeable about opening or locking the box correctly.

    I don’t believe the showing responsibility should be passed off on the cleaning person. Their job is to clean not show apartments. You or a property manager should be the ones present during the showing. From experience the perspective tenant who comes to view the apartment will always have a question or two about the property or the surrounding area. It’s best you answer their questions.

      I'm not sure if your comment was a joke or not. But there is a movie that came out in 1995 with Chris Farley and David Spade that's a comedy. Ever since that movie, anybody named Tom, Tommy, Tony, etc. I think of that movie and have called friends that. It has nothing to do with race at all.

      @@christianlane2307 My comment was mostly serious. Coming from a black man, for any reason, and this one was extremely weak (Tommy to Tony?), never call a black person "boy" and especially during Black History Month. She owes my brother Tony, who is basically carrying this podcast with his great performance, a major apology.
