Hi, I’m Erika ! I went from burnt out over-committed Mom to full living Real Estate Investor and Multi-entrepreneur. In just a few years Despite not having any money, poor credit, and a lack of resources, in just a few years I was able to scale from 0 to 38 doors with a portfolio worth more than $5 million. I went from living paycheck to paycheck to having financial options! I’m a living example of how even though the world can easily write your sentence one way, it doesn’t have to end how society often finishes it. I’m the daughter of a man who grew up sharecropping in the rural south and a woman who grew up the second oldest of 7 children living in a two-room house in Louisiana. I’m a black girl who grew up south of Dallas, who got pregnant before getting married, and had to get a job before getting a degree. I worked my way up in a corporate job for many years before leaving to pursue my own dreams in Real Estate. With God’s grace, hard work, and learning from the people that I aspired to be like, I turned a career as a Real Estate Agent into a multi-million dollar Real Estate empire that provides jobs, empowers the community, and provides online education to help others write a different sentence too. I’m so honored you’re here and my hope is that my story inspires and motivates you, and that you’ll grab ahold of your own future success and allow me to encourage and help you along the way.

Hey Reader, One of the biggest reasons I believe 2025 is the best time to invest in real estate in the last 7 years is because of the type of market we’re in right now.

Hey Reader, You ever heard that saying, “Buy low, sell high?”Well, I want to show you what that actually looks like — in real life. I have a client who bought 2 properties in 2008… right in the middle of one of the scariest financial moments in our lifetime.Each property cost just $5,000.People thought they were crazy.
