About Jeremy LeMere

Jeremy LeMere began his real estate journey when he purchased his first duplex in 2010. He began investing with the goal of retiring by the time he turned 55. In 2011, he earned his MBA, which changed his investing trajectory. Leveraging the opportunity brought by the Great Recession’s foreclosure market, he began rehabbing single-family homes in 2013 to quickly build equity in his portfolio. Four years later, after 22 years as a manufacturing engineer, he experienced a career-disrupting event that pushed him to scale his real estate portfolio even more quickly. In 2018 he closed on a 28-unit apartment property. Three months later he closed on an 8-unit property which allowed him to become financially free from his engineering career, thus achieving his goal by the time he was 45.    

Since 2018, Jeremy has continued to diversify his investments by expanding his real estate portfolio into a variety of real estate assets. He is passively investing in out-of-state assets, providing hard money loans, and syndicating deals (including over 1,000 self-storage units, commercial retail spaces, and hotel-to-apartment conversions) as a means to diversify his investments. Jeremy has since ended his engineering career and transitioned to real estate full time. He now spends time helping others learn about real estate by participating in regional REIA organizations and the local apartment associations, where he actively encourages others to get into real estate.
