If you don’t know Lady Landlords, allow us to introduce you!

Lady Landlords is a group dedicated to helping women in the real estate industry start investing, grow their portfolios, and reach financial independence. What started as Becky Nova (founder) looking for a real estate investing community has blossomed into a Facebook group of over 30,000 landlords in 2 years.

Welcome to Lady Landlords.

Recently, Becky Nova & Lady Landlords threw a summer soiree for women real estate investors (and their families) to network—and eat some tacos and drink margaritas—yum!   

Fortunately, RentRedi was invited to the event and got to ask these ladies a few questions about their investing journeys. 

Enjoy reading some of their answers below! Can you relate?

What types of investing do you do?

  • College housing investing
  • Long-term single- and multi-family
  • Short-term for traveling nurses
  • Section 8

What are your top problems as a landlord/investor?

  • Broken things have to get fixed—no matter what 
  • Not being able to afford a property manager
  • Finding under-market value properties
  • Finding a team you can trust 
  • Finding creative financing
  • Water that destroyed the floor—the tenant was so upset
  • Any type of maintenance! 
  • Tenant management

Do you have any advice for other investors?

  • Get a good contract if you have a partner because you could lose your investment
  • Get a team
  • Get a good real estate agent, attorney, lender
  • Add little amenities (like utility outlets) to rentals and make sure you point them out to tenants when you’re showing the property
  • Don’t give up, stay persistent, and know your “why”
  • Don’t let anyone intimidate you as a woman

What do you like best about Lady Landlords? What’s the best advice you got from the Facebook group?

  • Real estate investing is a male-dominated field so I love the woman empowerment
  • Having ladies who are taking the time to not let anyone tell you no
  • Ladies here are always willing to help one another
  • The feedback there is always encouraging
  • Learn how to invest for financial freedom and for kids, not be tied to 9-5
  • Know the “why” of why you’re investing 
  • I wanted to invest in Section 8. I asked the ladies for help and when the time came to actually invest, I looked like I knew what I was doing

What do you enjoy most about Lady Landlords?

Said Becky Nova, founder of Lady Landlords,

“Being in a community and able to hear inspiring stories daily from these women. It helps me to continue moving forward in my own journey. I originally started this group to help with my own tenant situations. I thought, there has to be other people out there. So, I made the group to find them.”
