Chase Hunter is a real estate investor, entrepreneur, and founder of Investors Edge Network—a turnkey investment firm helping people across the country build wealth in Detroit’s housing market. Starting with two properties she bought sight unseen, Chase has grown into a powerful force for affordable housing and community development.
In this episode, Chase shares how she went from corporate America to owning multiple properties, why Detroit offers unique opportunities for investors, and how she turned her own pain points into a full-service real estate network. She breaks down misconceptions about the market, why now is still a great time to invest despite inflation, and how shifting from landlord to lender can create new pathways for ownership. Chase also opens up about balancing profitability with community impact, and why mentorship is the single most important step for aspiring entrepreneurs.
