The Best Ever CRE Show JF 3911: Affordable Housing in Paradise, Raising Millions on Social, and Flipping for Legacy ft. Zasha Smith
On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Zasha Smith, a former engineer turned real estate investor based in Hawaii. Zasha shares how a Google search on “how to get rich” led her from burnout in a 70-hour workweek to flipping houses, raising over $9 million through Instagram, and eventually launching a debt and equity fund. She dives into her latest affordable housing development on the Big Island, where she’s building 32 kit homes on $4K lots to support local families. Zasha also breaks down her social media strategy, her reasons for attending the Best Ever Conference, and her long-term mission to invest while making a positive impact in her home community.
