Mindset plays a huge role in your success especially in real estate. On today’s episode, we talk with Mandy McAllister, investor and mindset coach, about how she scaled from a 4-plex to over 200 doors. Mandy quickly realized that her investing strategy a few years ago would not get her to her real estate goal so she pushed aside her self doubt and leveraged relationships to grow into multifamily buildings. We discuss with Mandy the power of working with partners and how to find the right one, how to identify what is holding you back in your business, and why you need to shift your attitude to grow. Mandy also shares a great productivity hack to implement into your day. Mandy McAllister is a multifamily real estate investor, mindset ninja, eternal learner, coach and dot connector. She followed volleyball to Mercer University in Georgia where she was awarded Top Graduate in Marketing.  Soon after, she moved to Chicago to do a Masters in Economics and began work at the Board of Trade. Her professional career transitioned to Medical Device Sales where she was a perennial top performer. After many years of “chasing commission” she has made it her mission to secure financial freedom for her family and others through syndications and coaching individuals to realize their personal potential. Her real estate expertise includes repositioning underperforming assets to increase cashflow and value. Her portfolio is currently comprised of 205 doors, primarily B- class workforce housing.  Mandy has found success in college towns with student housing as well as urban centers. Her passion is to help others define their path to financial freedom especially women through her platform, Aspiring Women Achieving More. She is most proud to be mama to her hilarious 4-year-old son Duncan who, coincidentally, wants to be a real estate investor when he grows up.
