BiggerPockets Co-Host... From Rookie to Full-Time Real Estate Investor - Women of Action

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Investor Mel – Women of Action show! In this episode, I’m speaking with Ashley Kehr co-host of the Bigger Pockets Real Estate Rookie podcast. Today’s show is jammed packed with tips for newbie investors including property management, househacking, mindset and much much more. 

Ashley Kehr lives near Buffalo, NY on a Dairy Farm with her husband and three boys. She is the co-host of the Real Estate Rookie Podcast. She helps newbies figure out actionable steps to get their first deal. She was a beginner not too long ago and uses her experiences to guide rookies. She has a dual degree in finance and public accounting and recently became a licensed insurance agent.

She purchased her first rental property in 2014 and since then has grown her buy and hold portfolio to over 35 units. She has experience in residential and commercial properties. She accredits much of her success to the use of partners on several real estate deals and creative financing. A new venture outside of real estate that she took on was opening a Wine & Liquor Store!

Ashley became passionate about real estate after quitting her staff accountant job to work as a property manager. Within several years she had created two property management companies that she ran for over 5 years. Her specialty was creating systems to work efficiently and remotely within the companies. Currently, she outsources the property management and spends her time educating new investors and finding deals to rehab and turn into rentals. Her specialty is finding properties that can be purchased under market value then adding value to them by either raising rent, rehabbing or cosmetic updates.

Ashley’s most recent venture is a wine and liquor store that she opened in one of the buildings she rehabbed.

Ashley’s real estate investing strategies have been featured on Podcasts including, BiggerPockets Real Estate, BiggerPockets Money, The Daily Real Estate Investor, The Real Estate InvestHer Show, The Myndful Investor, The Investor’s Podcast, and BiggerPocket’s Business. Wealth Magazine and BiggerPockets.com Blog have featured her as a real estate investor.
