From CRE Daily:
From coding Python to flipping 56 homes to building a $4B real estate empire, Janet LePage’s journey is anything but typical.
In this episode, Jack and Alex sit down with the CEO of Western Wealth Capital to hear how she scaled from two foreclosures in Phoenix to 30,000 multifamily units across the Sunbelt and what it’s taken to weather the most aggressive interest rate hike in modern history.
Janet doesn’t hold back. She shares how she navigated buying buildings while raising two kids, launched a vertically integrated platform in 26 days during COVID, and why she still remembers eating a pickle and mayo sandwich the day she bought her first multifamily deal.
We also dive into:
– How she scaled Western Wealth to institutional level fast
– Why washer-dryer installs became her secret weapon
– What it really takes to lead in a down cycle
– How she’s navigating rate resets, lender pressure, and distressed opportunities in 2025
