Jamisa’s new home was decorated “grandmother style,” and she wanted to change the look. She wasn’t aware of the cost of renovation, most estimates coming in around $60,000. Many of the contractors offered to buy the home cash for approximately $70,000. She realized the home was worth more than the offers she received, so she decided to sell the home for $152,000. This was a large sum amount being she lived on her cashier’s salary. Not soon after she sold the house, she realized she could have sold it for $300,000.
She recalls her first few moves in real estate were “solely based on fear” as she wasn’t sure what she was doing in this new realm.

She was approached by multiple investors and was offered partnerships with several investors.
