INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
Building Wealth Through Real Estate
Real estate has long been one of the most reliable ways to build long-term wealth. Over the past decade, I’ve had the opportunity to experience that firsthand—not only as a Realtor®, but also as a property owner and investor.
My Experience as an Investor
After several years helping buyers and sellers throughout the Des Moines metro, I made the decision to purchase the home I was living in and convert it into a rental property. That was seven years ago. Since then, I’ve continued to grow my portfolio and have purchased and managed multiple rental properties.

A Growing Market for Investors
Central Iowa has become an attractive area for real estate investors thanks to steady population growth, a strong employment base, and housing prices that remain relatively affordable compared to many other parts of the country.
Communities With Strong Rental Demand
Single-family homes and townhomes in communities such as Urbandale, Ankeny, Waukee, Johnston, and the greater Des Moines area often offer a strong balance of stability, rental demand, and long-term appreciation potential.
Strategies Many Investors Use
For many people, their first investment property begins with a simple strategy:
• Purchasing a home and later converting it to a rental
• Buying a single-family property specifically as an income property
• Gradually building a small portfolio over time
