Melissa Cowan is 31 with two investment properties. After buying her first IP off the plan, she very quickly purchased her second.
How did she do it? It’s a great story of risk management and understanding your threshold for stress. So many of my previous guests have said “I wish I started investing earlier” - well here is that investor - and what a great story it is.
We discuss -
1:44- Mel has always wanted to create financial independence
4:59- How Mel attended numerous free property seminars looking for answers
6:32 - Shares v real estate and why Mel loves the leverage of real estate
11:08 - Buying off the plan
15:00 - How Mel purchased her second investment so quickly after her first
17:04 - Mel’s plans for 2022 and her plans for a third property
