39: The One with Dawn Augsten

Dawn Augsten from Florida shares her incredible journey as a second-generation real estate investor. Raised in a family of investors, she honed her skills in property management from a young age, and her college years further cemented her path in real estate. We compare and contrast our backgrounds—Dawn's lifelong immersion in the industry versus my first-generation, trial-by-fire approach in St. Louis.

Our conversation provides a rich tapestry of experiences, challenges, and lessons learned along the way. The journey of transforming a family business into a flourishing real estate operation is no small feat, and we explore this intricate process in depth. Inspired by "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and an invaluable internship, I set my sights on Greenville, South Carolina, where strategic partnerships and a stellar local team became the backbone of our success. Along with sharing anecdotes from coaching softball and facing unexpected property challenges, we also delve into diverse investment strategies, including rental arbitrage in Fort Lauderdale. The importance of building strong relationships with trusted professionals is underscored as a critical element in overcoming obstacles and achieving success.

Join us for insights on balancing family business dynamics, personal aspirations, and lifestyle choices that make life both fulfilling and fun.
