She completed an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry from McMaster University and has worked in various roles in healthcare and stroke and cancer research since 2010.In 2018, she attended a weekend course about Real Estate Investing, and her eyes were opened to the incredible opportunities that exist in owning rental properties, private lending, and equity investments. Since then, her portfolio expanded to a few buy-and-hold properties and a small multi-family. Over the last two years, her goal was scaling her Real Estate business, but it was challenging as she had no clear strategy in mind. This was her biggest focus in 2022 – research and soul-searching on what she wants her business to look like. That plus the recent market changes in Ontario, Inna has since pivoted to Land Development. Now her focus is increasing density in strategic locations in Ontario with the ultimate goal of owning a free purpose-built rental apartment.Connect with InnaInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/rei.innahanson/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/REI.InnaHansonConnect with Danielle ChiassonWebsite: https://strategicsuccessconsulting.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniellechiasson/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DaniChiassonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/letsgetrealTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@danichiassonBook in a call: https://calendly.com/strategicsuccess/lets-get-real-estate-20-min-chatListen in and subscribe for more.You can also leave us a review and of course, don’t forget to share.
