How badly do you want to leave your nine-to-five job, retire early, or travel the world? For this mom of four, working until traditional retirement age was never an option. She’s already taken down eight real estate deals in just two years, which has allowed her husband to quit his W-2 job. And she’s next in line! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Molly Shepard is a U.S. Army veteran, busy mom, and full-time loan officer, and yet she’s been able to carve out time to work on the one thing that will give her family financial freedom: real estate investing.
