Partner
Roksolana Backus
Licensed agent with Coldwell Banker Realty and an owner-operator in her own right. Twenty-plus years in real estate and property management, five short-term rentals she owns and runs, and $1.8M+ sold this year.
When she lists a house she knows what the roof cost, because she has paid for one. She has held, rented, and sold with her own money, so she never pushes one exit.
One of us is an attorney who spent eighteen years fixing how companies run, and underwrites every deal herself. One of us has twenty years in this market, owns rentals, and prices property for a living.
Between us we have bought it, renovated it, rented it, managed it, and sold it. Whichever side of the table you are on, you are not our first one.
We are the ones standing in the house.
Not a fund with an asset manager and a quarterly call. Every walkthrough, every scope conversation, every decision about what gets fixed and what gets replaced. That is us, on site, with the people doing the work.
One real deal, real numbers, every week.
Saren writes about what we are buying, what we walked away from, and what the numbers actually looked like. Free, and the fastest way to see how we think before you ever talk to us.
