Guest: Maria Esposito, Real Estate Investor and Entrepreneur 

Life was good by most people’s standards but something was missing for Maria. She loved her family and had a great government job but was restless and feeling unfulfilled. Spending 15 years in this unfulfilled life she made the decision to leave her husband and start a new life with her two girls. 

In 2015 she left the security of that government job and pension, liquidated all of her assets and re­invested her life’s savings in the personal development of herself. Having been born and raised in St. Catharines and having such a passion for the region, it made total sense for her to focus her real estate investing business in the area. 

Maria is now the CEO of Elite Property Investments Inc. a real estate investment company that she founded together with her partner Carlo Cocozza. Managed by Maria, who has spent time building local government and supplier relationships, the company has quickly built a reputation as St. Catharines market specialists with a laser focus on the downtown core in the multi­family arena.  Elite has two main avenues available for real estate investors, one an active focus in off­-market opportunities and then secondly a more hands-off passive opportunity.

In this episode learn about:
– tips on having a multi-family focus and the benefits of that strategy
– how to find good deals and the fundamentals to look for when buying properties
– benefits of relationship building with local government and suppliers
– the importance of investing in your personal development
