What do you do for a living?
I’m a real estate investor and a real estate agent in Augusta, GA.
How long have you been involved in real estate?
I’ve been involved in real estate as an agent for six years and as a real estate investor for over a year now.
How do you get started in real estate?
I’ve always been interested in real estate. I was single mom and did hair. In 2016 I learned about becoming a real estate agent and realized I could do both jobs while raising my kids, additionally, it allowed me to stay at home and raise them.
What have been your favorite things about real estate?
I love helping people solve problems. Specifically, stopping the bank from taking their equity. For example, many families are in foreclosure and behind on payments and don’t know what to do. I help clients get their home sold quickly.

With six years helping people buy and sell houses and helping investors get great deals on properties, I realized that real estate investing would be a great solution.
I started a real estate investing coaching program, Homeschooled By Tarek, one year ago
