Taking Flight: The Entrepreneurs Journey Podcast

Today’s guest is an experienced real estate agent who is passionate about helping others create wealth and a portfolio they can retire on. Please welcome to the show Samantha Hayes, CEO of Atlas Real Estate. Samantha joins host Sarah Tourville to share her passion for real estate, and strategies in building passive incomes and wealth through it. Learn with Sarah about Samantha’s experiences and issues women entrepreneurs face, rehabilitating properties, generating passive incomes, and her future business expansion plans!
 
Takeaways:
  • Samantha underscores the importance of building passive income streams. Through buying and flipping homes or building rental portfolios, she argues, entrepreneurs can achieve financial independence and leave a lasting legacy.
  • Business owners need to strategically adapt to changing market conditions. Samantha draws from her own experiences within the real estate sector during times of high-interest rates and economic downturns.
  • There is value of trust in business relationships. Samantha shares her lessons of expecting accountability from her team members and how a trust-based relationship with her operations manager improved her business process.
  • Samantha uses intense focus on designing her life intentionally. She shares her method of setting clear personal and professional boundaries and goals, transforming those into reality, and achieving work-life balance.
  • There is a challenge for female entrepreneurs, and they often face balancing assertiveness and empathy in professional settings. Samantha has navigated this dynamic by being authentic and unapologetically herself.
  • Community memberships in such groups, like EO Atlanta, can provide a sense of belonging. It also enables members to learn from each other's experiences, and offer opportunities for mentorship.
  • Samantha plans to double the number of rental doors and her goal of achieving a million dollars in passive income profit from these properties in three years to demonstrate her aggressive growth strategy.
