Bijou Condo worked as a registered nurse for a few years but shifted to investing in businesses and real estate. When she moved to England to study nursing, she didn’t have family or anyone to stay with, so she learned to live on a budget. That experience laid a good foundation for her to become a successful entrepreneur. She became passionate about real estate and financial freedom and worked hard to achieve her goals.
After college, she met Claude Condo, now her husband, who educated her about real estate investing. Together, they have scaled their portfolio and now own businesses and commercial real estate properties. They believe that focusing on just one investment is risky. You need to have multiple income streams. Their journey wasn’t easy initially, but their passion and consistency helped them overcome the challenges. Listen now to hear Bijou’s inspiring story and learn how you can achieve financial freedom and be successful!
