Megan started her real estate career in 2013 by selling a few bitcoins she had bought earlier that year. With less than a $4,000 down payment, she bought her first duplex with an FHA 203k loan in Central Arkansas.\u00a0<\/p><p>Since then, she has managed a commercial real estate portfolio in the San Francisco Bay Area worth over $200 million in multiple asset classes- multifamily, retail, office, and mixed-use. She has grown her personal portfolio from a start of $400 to a value of $2.28 million with over half of that value coming from the last 2 years.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p><p>Megan enjoys making music, playing with her pups, and traveling the world with her life partner.
