TikTok & Real Estate Star in only 8 Months!!! - Milena Simsic - PHS: 018
01/24/23 • 43 min
On this week's episode of the Property Hustlers Show, we were thrilled to have Milena Simisc as our guest. She is a realtor, real estate investor, and TikTok star!
Have you ever wondered how to change your life in a year? Well, that is precisely what Milena did. Before real estate, Milena worked as a nurse, while still working she invested in a 6 unit apartment building and realized how much she enjoyed working in real estate investing in Canada and found herself wondering should I leave my job? She came to a crossroads and was thinking of either becoming a doctor or investing more time in real estate as she couldn't handle working as a nurse anymore, especially because of how badly nurses underpaid.
After she made the switch the next question was how to get started in real estate. Milena didn't have people around her who could help teach her more about real estate investment strategies so she turned to real estate podcasts. While she was taking her realtor courses to become a realtor in Ontario she decided to share her knowledge with the internet and quickly became a part of TikTok real estate. Being an introvert Milena wasn't too concerned about how to get big on TikTok she was just looking to help people, nonetheless, her content took off right away!
After getting her realtor license Milena quickly got involved with the Windsor real estate market. Even with being a Canadian real estate investor Milena continued her presence on social media with the goal of helping and informing people. Milena would say that getting into real estate was one of the best decisions she's made.

Market Crashing!! Here Are The Options & Opportunities - Kevin Huynh PHS - 017
On this week's episode of the Property Hustlers Show, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Kevin Huynh who is a principal broker with Empire Mortgage Group, as well as a seasoned Canadian real estate investor.
Kevin has been working as a mortgage broker for over a decade and he believes that by educating all of his clients, is the key to promoting financial literacy. With clients the goal is get the cash flow in real estate as low as possible so it stays in their realm of being able to afford it. When working with Kevin you won't have to worry about how much should your mortgage be because he will take you with him every step of the way to show you what mortgage rates today in Canada should look like.
A big question you often hear today is, is the real estate market crashing and if so what do you do? Kevin says his company has predictions about what's to come, they are piviting in an area that there are different mortgage products that allow them to go in a shorter term or be more flexible depending on where the market goes over the next 12 months. If inflation numbers continue to rise the bank will be raising interest rates inflation. However Kevin says that as interest rates are rising the inflationary number may have gone down.
Kevin found himself in Costa Rica and loving the scenery he wondered about buying real estate in Costa Rica. That is exactly what he did, Kevin saw Costa Rica real estate for sale and couldn't help but invest. When he isn't there he is using it as an Airbnb to make money on the side. When it comes to the question whether he is an active investor vs passive investor he has taken more of a passive role since he will be having to do remote real estate. In Canada you will find Kevin working in commercial financing and occasionally flipping houses in Ontario.
Kevin loves his job and is devoted to his company but ever since the birth of his children he has put his family first and is working on balancing work and family life.
