Tips for Flexible Financing, Rental Investments and More
It’s all too easy for entrepreneurs to put all our eggs in one basket and plough savings and then some into building our own business. Often that’s what it takes when you’re bootstrapping and struggling to find alternative sources of capital to fund your innovation and growth.
A wiser path may be to diversify and add a stream of passive income to the mix, so today we talk about how real estate could be both a safety net and the way you build your cash flow war chest to help you fund your business.
Brittney Fairweather is a co-founder and Chief Business Development Officer of TRX Capital, a real estate lending firm with a mission to bridge the gap for first-time buyers and revolutionize real estate investing with business purpose lending. At TRX, Brittney manages overall growth, strategy, and client-facing communications, with extensive experience in residential loan origination, investor relations, underwriting, accounting, online auctions, and fund management. Before TRX, Brittney was a founding member of the Genesis group of real estate lending companies, which sold to Goldman Sachs.

We’ll dive into her journey with TRX Cap Fund, why collaborative teamwork has been the secret to Brittney’s success, and how her company is empowering investors while providing affordable housing, and revitalizing distressed neighborhoods.
