Hey WIIRE friends, we hope you are as excited as we are because today is our first-ever in-person interview, with Kelsey Porter. Kelsey is a friend of Amelia’s, located in Des Moines (another IOWA girl!), and is a realtor who grew up around new construction and investment properties and spent time watching her stepdad invest in luxury homes. While not all of those are what she spends her time doing in her current zone of genius, she saw value in owning property from a young age and has truly stepped into her own in the world of real estate investing.
Through her journey of becoming a realtor, she has felt the joy it has brought her by helping others invest in real estate, which has given her the drive to do this for her future.
To hear more about Kelsey and her journey, check out her blog and connect with her on Instagram. We know you’ll love Kelsey and all of the amazing things she shares so let us know your biggest takeaway from today’s episode!
Thanks for listening!

In this WIIRE episode, we are welcoming the mind behind the Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor, Chad Carson. Chad began his real estate investing journey back in 2003 in Clemson, South Carolina, and along with his business partner has grown an incredible business and impressive portfolio.
He first started working on Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor, not even knowing what it would be called yet, but instead with a list of ‘Here is why I want to do this.’ and asked himself, ‘What kind of business can do this for me?’. The answer will probably surprise you so don’t miss a second of this incredible interview.
Chad has pivoted a few times during his investing journey but has also changed the way he thinks and the way he helps people now offering coaching services alongside his real estate investing business.
Want to know more about Chad and what he offers? Connect with him on Instagram or check out his podcast on YouTube!
We hope you loved this episode as much as we did. Thanks for tuning in!

Hello WIIRE listeners! In this episode, we are sharing our best tips when it comes to the tenant screening practices that both of us swear by, plus talking about how tenant screening and onboarding practices differ when you are talking about an MTR vs a long-term rental property. Tenant screening is where you solidify and guarantee the success of your rental business when it comes to the renting piece so pay close attention because this will help you on your journey to becoming a super-organized REI business owner!
We’re often asked about how we screen our tenants, and that’s exactly what we are diving into today. We are sharing the questions to ask and how to check your tenant’s answers to make sure they’re legit (don’t skip this important step!).
Doors to the next round of our signature course, CEO Bootcamp will be opening soon, so get ready!
