My journey started out of necessity. I'm a single mom, a real estate professional (but you don't have to be!), and someone who knew there had to be more than just trading time for money. So I decided to take the leap—from agent (service provider, or employee) to investor—and now I’m documenting every step so you can learn from it, avoid my mistakes, and start building your own path to consistent $20K months.

My name is Karen Parnes.
I didn’t have it all figured out- I just decided
not to settle.
I’m sharing it all—how I’m going from ZERO to $20K/month as a real estate investor.
Not the polished version. The real one.
The one with detours, bad comps, money stress, and wins that come from just not quitting.
Here’s what you’ll get:
Real talk on what’s working (and what’s not)
Learn from my mistakes so you don't make them
My experiments with new ways to find off-market deals
How I analyze properties to avoid costly mistakes
Behind-the-scenes on actual deals (lead source, numbers, contractors, and more)
Accountability as I grow—so you can see what’s possible for you, too
