“It is all about relationships and being an active listener, a good person and showing up for things.” This describes how Jhanel Wilson, founder and CEO of The Savvy REI, approaches smart real estate investing. Jhanel began her journey in real estate by flipping a duplex her father deemed unlivable. Jhanel saw an opportunity and took it, understanding the seemingly rundown house's worth. After navigating private and smaller loans to expand her property portfolio, Jhanel turned to commercial loans to land her four properties in her 20s. 

On today’s episode, Jhanel explains that the secret to understanding the real estate market in familiar or unfamiliar places is building relationships. Jhanel swears by making relationships, talking to resources, and exchanging connections to get you further in the real estate game. With this mentality, Jhanel has created an eight-figure portfolio and is on a mission to share her 17+ years of hard-earned lessons and personal strategies to help others do the same.

Tune into this week’s interview episode of the Real Estate InvestHER Show for a conversation with Jhanel Wilson about how she built herself from the ground up by creating lasting relationships, listening to her clients and the market, and making connections to get a more well rounded idea of the areas she is investing in. Then, check out Jhanel’s e-book titled Invest in Real Estate with No Money Down, Using High Limit Credit Cards to learn even more about her approach!
