This week, we pull back the curtain on Amelia’s newest acquisition: an 11-unit apartment building in a B+ suburb of Des Moines. This candid conversation is packed with insights for female real estate investors who want to scale beyond single-family rentals without taking on 100-unit syndications.

You’ll hear how Amelia:

  • Spotted this off-market CBRE pocket listing and knew instantly it was a killer deal
  • Analyzed the numbers, negotiated the price from $750K to $735K, and structured a 50/50 partnership with her mom
  • Plans to boost returns by converting select units to mid-term rentals (MTRs) for traveling nurses
  • Uses local market expertise, not endless spreadsheets, to move fast and confidently
  • Projects over $200K in debt paydown, $160K in appreciation, and $308K in cash flow over 10 years

We also dive into:

  • Why sticking to one market can be your biggest competitive edge
  • How to balance risk, reserves, and anxiety as you level up
  • What “total return” really means for your net worth and lifestyle design

If you’re a woman ready to grow from a few doors to a scalable portfolio, this episode shows you exactly how one thoughtful 11-unit deal can be life-changing.
