Courtney has been investing since 2015 and has since flipped or owned over a hundred and fifty properties in the Greater New Orleans area. Since her start, she has flipped, held rentals, wholesaled, developed, bought, and sold with owner financing, and handled complex title issues.
Before making the leap into working full-time for herself investing, her background was in non-profit work and then in commercial property management, where she created and executed the management plan for the turnaround of a 100+ unit marina to prepare the asset for sale. As founder of Northshore Real Estate Investors Association and cohost of WWL’s Home Improvement radio show, she cares about solving the real estate problems of our community through education for the public and within the industry.
