I have a great podcast for you today. My guest is Brittany Bolling from Baltimore, MD. Brittany is a wife, a busy mom, and a young business woman that has completely changed her thinking and her business the past two years.
She has had some big challenges. Brittany actually quit real estate and started over several times, but she has finally found the formula for success that works for her. This is the thing I want you to really understand; you have to figure out what works for you. This is also the beauty of being an entrepreneur. You get to design a lifestyle business that meets your needs today.
How does a young mother of two go from 0 to closing 25 real estate deals in a short period of time? You are about to find out. This podcast is inspiring and really puts “generational” thinking into a whole new perspective.

About Brittany
In January of 2013, I made a commitment to be successful in real estate no matter what. I did some SEO training in April and hired a VA to help optimize my website, and I started getting leads via the internet. In September I closed on two deals while still working at my full time job.
In November I quit my full time job while I was 4 months pregnant to dedicate myself to wholesaling. Since dedicating myself to real estate full time I have been through many tribulations and growth spurts. I have learned about networking and sustaining relationships which is vital to having a successful business. You can contact Brittany at this email: Bolling.brittany@gmail.com

I have been trying to get in touch with a potential seller today. So far she hasn’t called me back. When she does, I will forward that lead to you if it looks like anything.

I’m actually a friend of Brittany from high school and it’s a great story to see. To first see the post on Facebook and to hear the great success story it was like looking in the mirror for me. All the call center jobs, all the struggles of trying to get into real estate it’s been crazy. It’s a great motivation and I am actually looking for more advise in becoming a great real estate investor. Great news uplifting.
