  • Sherkica Miller-McIntyre is on a mission to make real estate investing for women not only a possibility but a reality in real life. She has come to realize that when a person rents a property they are helping other people purchase their house when they could be building an opportunity and a legacy for themselves and their own family. In this conversation, you’re going to hear how Sherkica is working to help women think down their generational line to see how their path toward home ownership and real estate investing can change things long-term. It’s a great conversation that could change your family’s future, so be sure you take the time to listen.

    She didn’t qualify to buy a home, but she purchased a home anyway.

    Every one of us has a story and how it turns out is up to us. Sherkica Miller-McIntyre was in a place where home ownership didn’t seem possible. In fact, she’d been told by an "expert" that she didn’t qualify for a home loan. But she didn’t give up. When she heard about a real estate seminar that was teaching about the possibility of home ownership she decided to attend and learned additional information that made it possible for her to purchase her own home in spite of what she’d been told. She went on to become a real estate agent and now helps women purchase their own home and even invest in real estate for long term gains. You’ll enjoy this conversation, so make some time to listen and learn.

    No matter the hurdles, there is a path to getting past them and start investing in real estate.

    There’s no doubt that whatever you want to do, there will be obstacles you will have to overcome. But be careful. Too many women allow the obstacles to dictate their outcome. They lose sight of their dreams and stop working toward them, simply because they believe the obstacles are too big. Sherkica Miller-McIntyre says that no matter the obstacles in your path, there is a way around them - but you have to want to get past them. In this conversation, she shares the steps you can take to identify the obstacles you face and make a plan to overcome them. It’s an inspiring conversation so don’t miss it!

    Sherkica’s mission is to make real estate investing possible for women. It's time for you to get started!

    Many of us shrink back when we think about buying a home. To go beyond that and think about the possibility of owning investment properties as well… that’s more than many of us can even conceive. But Sherkica Miller-McIntyre specializes in helping women invest in real estate, beginning with the purchase of their own home. She believes that home ownership is possible for anyone and serves as a coach and guide to walk with you every step of that journey. What are you waiting for? What is holding you back? Sherkica offers a free strategy session in this conversation so don’t miss the opportunity to get moving toward a better future.

    Your investing goals could be closer than you think. But you won’t know until you take a look.

    When Rosetta asked her guest, Sherkica Miller-McIntyre for the first steps any woman can take to begin moving toward home ownership and/or real estate investing, she said that the very first step is to understand where you are, where you’re going, and the facts about what stands in your way. It requires hard work and an honest look at your situation, but it’s the only way to know for sure what you need to do to move your life in a different direction. Sherkica’s practical help and insight flow from her experience in helping many women move from being renters to homeowners, and beyond. You can’t miss this conversation. Sherkica shares how you can set the stage for a legacy of home ownership for your family for years to come.

    Sherkica Miller-McIntyre, a licensed Realtor in North and South Carolina and has successfully owned and operated a real estate and property management firm for 12 years. However, Sherkica not only assists clients with brokerage services, she passionately focuses on educating clients on credit, budget and savings, how to build, maintain and grow wealth through real estate; and, vigorously promotes the benefits of a career within real estate. The goal for Sherkica is to source the root of clients’ doubt in pursuing their real estate goals, then solidly reinforce the idea that freedom from debt, understanding of how credit works and can be used to build wealth, learning to operate on a balanced budget, and income generation provides avenues of life less traveled by most, in particular, women. Sherkica’s ideology is to create a shift in mindsets and self perception, and by doing so women will begin to break generational financial bondage, build their personal legacies and strengthen the communities in which they reside. Through one-on-one coaching, motivational techniques and continued accountability, clients receive personalized “pathways” to their real estate goal, focused on financial, credit, savings, investing and budgeting needs. Sherkica is married to an awesome husband, has four amazing children and a “grandma” to a beautiful Alaskan Husky. She loves to travel, spend time with family and has recently found a new passion in adult coloring books.

Then be able to achieve financial freedom and live the life of your dreams!Real estate has been in existence since people have decided that living in caves was no longer an option. However, most progress in real estate has probably happened in the last two centuries or so with the invention of the elevator. Elevators made it possible for real estate to include high-rise office buildings, multiple-floor residential apartment houses, and shopping malls.Investing in commercial real estate is very different from dealing with residential properties. Oftentimes commercial real estate deals require very little or even no capital. While commercial estate can be very risky, it can also be very safe because of a number of things you can do with commercial buildings that you can't do with residential dwellings. We will discuss all these differences and strategies later on in this book.Most people think that investing in commercial real estate is very similar to dealing with residential properties with the only differences being that that the money amounts are larger and contracts are longer. The reality is completely different.There are a lot of distinctions between commercial and residential real estate when it comes to legal, practical and operational aspects.Investing in commercial real estate is a great way to build wealth. The reason why commercial estate is a great vehicle for generating wealth can be explained in one word. This word is leverage. Leverage when applied to commercial real estate means that your returns from your commercial real estate investments can be much bigger than the time and effort you put into this business. Commercial properties are usually much more valuable than residential real estate such as apartments, condos or houses.Contact me for any questions: [email protected]
