Most of the advice for wanna-be real estate investors is written by and for men with the Old Boys Club perspective. This not only doesn't resonate with women, it doesn't address their unique needs and challenges in breaking into the real estate investing space.
This book compiles the best real estate investing advice by women for women. These nuggets of gold are from interviews by Monick Halm with successful and inspiring female real estate investors who shared their stories, challenges, biggest mistakes, lessons learned, and best advice for other women seeking to follow in their footsteps.
Monick Halm is an educator and advocate for women to create passive income streams through real estate investing, with a mission to assist 1 million women to achieve financial freedom through real estate. She is herself a real estate investor and syndicator with over 15 years of real estate investing experience and is the owner, with her husband and investors, of over 1300 rental units across 10 states. She is the founder of Real Estate Investor Goddesses, the host of the Real Estate Investor Goddesses Podcast, and the #1 bestselling author of 3 books: The Real Estate Investor Goddess Handbook, Wealth for Women: Conversations with the Team That Creates the Dream, and Investing in Real Estate from $1 to $1 Million. She is also a Real Estate Strategy Mentor, keynote speaker, recovering attorney, avid world traveler, wife, and mother of three amazing kids.

In this quick but thorough read, Monick answers the questions you have, and the ones you didn’t know to ask. If you’re ready to create serious wealth through real estate, read this book now!”

Dear Author,
You worked hard to write your manuscript; finally, it's ready to release. You know that expert assistance is needed, but perhaps you didn’t realize that working with a publisher is no longer necessary—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and "share" more of your revenue whenever a book is sold.
1106 Design is an author services company. We offer all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher, transforming your manuscript into a market-ready book. But here's the difference: we help you secure print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name. This means you earn several dollars more for every book sold instead of a meager “royalty.”
We understand that your book is not just a passion project but also a potential source of income. That's why we offer a range of services tailored to your needs at affordable prices. Depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity, our packages range from $4,000 to $10,000. And here's the best part: after this one-time investment, every penny of net revenue from book sales goes directly to you, never to us.
If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com. You can download a free PDF of my book, "Publish Like the Pros: A Brief Guide to Quality Self-Publishing and an Insider's Look at a Misunderstood Industry," and request a free, no-obligation consultation.
1106 Design has been in business since 2001 and is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. We are a “Highly Recommended Expert” at IngramSpark.com and rated "Excellent" at Alli, The Alliance for Independent Authors, at SelfPublishingAdvice.org, where you can find a "watchdog list" of the best and worst publishing services companies.
How can we serve you today?
Sincerely,
Michele DeFilippo, owner
