From Caregiver to Condo Investor with Tamara Brown
On this week’s episode, Avery is joined by Tamara Brown. Tamara shares how she stumbled into real estate while caring for her grandparents, turning multiple family homes into rentals before purchasing her first STR in Destin, Florida. She explains how she analyzed her numbers, leaned on mentorship, and embraced the “enemy method” to size up competition. Tamara also talks through condo ownership fears, financing through a family sale, and why fear should never stop you from pursuing real estate opportunities.
