Their portfolio now consists of 26 properties with 90% of them being brick bungalows with basement apartments or the capacity to develop them and rather than rapid growth they tend to advocate their coaching clients to build more steadily.

Their investing journey started in St. Catharines and as the Niagara Region has boomed they have tried to stay ahead of the growth curve by looking beyond, investing in Welland, Port Colbourne and also Hamilton.

Erika was nominated as Rising Star of the Year by the Canadian Real Estate Wealth Magazine in 2017.  Her focus is now currently building a 4-plex on a severed lot which was possible after buying a bakery.  She is looking to get involved more in small and then larger multi-family investments and likely seeing herself getting involved in private lending.

With so many lessons learned in her real estate career to date, Erika has found her experience, knowledge and just do it motto has attracted newer real estate investors who she now coaches and helps find their own journey to success. You will learn about: – Scaling your business fast and the downsides – Lessons learned and mistakes made along the way – Structuring your JV deals and finding a good JV partner – Setting up corporations, pros and cons – From Bakery to a 4-Plex!

From Troubled Teen to Flipping Master



Michael Green is a successful house flipper, is the host of The Flip Factor podcast and has completed over 1100 deals. But at one point in time, this success was just a teenage boy’s dream. At the age of fifteen, prompted by late-night infomercials, Michael bought the book No Money Down by Carlton Sheets, which planted the seed of eventually becoming a house flipper.

Guest: Michael Green, Real Estate Investor, Speaker & Entrepreneur

Michael Green is a successful house flipper, is the host of The Flip Factor podcast and has completed over 1100 deals. But at one point in time, this success was just a teenage boy’s dream. At the age of fifteen, prompted by late-night infomercials, Michael bought the book No Money Down by Carlton Sheets, which planted the seed of eventually becoming a house flipper.

But the road to success wasn’t always easy. Growing up next to the projects in Baltimore, Michael found himself getting into trouble, and his relationship with his dad was built on breaking the law.

At 17, Michael found himself thrown into a paddy wagon with handcuffs around his wrists. Faced with a four-year jail sentence and a cold, uncomfortable prison cell, with terrible food, scratchy blankets and no freedom, Michael had a lot of time to think. He thought about how if his life up to that point were a house, it would be a broken-down, boarded-up house. His negative patterns and limiting beliefs had eaten away at his foundation like hungry termites. Michael could either continue these patterns and let his life crumble around him, or he could step up and fix it.

So he got to work on his first flip – himself

He started out as a flooring installer and in 2008 he was doing a job for a gentleman flipping houses named Jason Shara. Sensing his curiosity and interest in the industry, he invited Michael to a free meeting for house flippers. At this meeting, Michael was introduced to his first mentor. After just a few months of studying under his mentor, he made his first deal flipping a house for $16,000 without a single penny of his money.

For the next year, he continued doing flips and made a total of $106,459 and in 2009 he was able to leave his full-time job and has been flipping houses ever since

Michael believes that the key to success in the house flipping industry is being open to investing in personal growth and seeing the potential in something that’s a little broken-down and rough around the edges, even if others may have given up on it. This includes seeing the potential in oneself.

After learning this, Michael has scaled two houses flipping businesses and flipped over 1100 houses in the last ten years and achieved the success he’d never believed was possible. He finds the most rewarding part of his career to be helping others make profound changes from the inside out and achieving financial freedom. When he’s not flipping houses or giving back, Michael can be found travelling, attempting to surf, and most recently, learning how to hike. You will learn about: – Financing tips and differences – Building your power team – Analyzing deals and the key numbers to look for – Tips on scaling up your business – Closing deals insights
