Dave and Melanie Dupuis are the Power Investor Couple, experienced, successful, self-taught real estate investors. When they first met, their shared passion for real estate investing, a vision of financial freedom and an understanding of what it would take to get there got this duo set on the road to success.

Together, they have founded Dupuis Properties and put their business plan into action. Their ultimate goal was to expand and to grow their real estate portfolio to a point where their investments became prosperous enough for Mel to leave her full-time job. They have already achieved this goal and she was able to do so before turning 40. Their best year to date was when they impressively acquired twelve properties in less than twelve months and now own just under 100 doors and have an additional 100+ doors under contract.

Last year their life changed forever. Dave and Mel were in a horrific, life-changing highway accident caused by a careless truck driver. They decided to capture and share all their secrets in the book titled “Real Estate Investing Secrets – A NO-BS Guide to Creating Wealth & Freedom”. Published earlier this year it has already become an Amazon #1 Best Seller numerous times. They have also been on several podcasts and radio shows including a 4-week series with CBC radio.
