KELLY CAMERON | Mere Mortals Interview # 021
About this episode
Welcome to another Mere Mortals interview. Kelly was 10 when her grandparents’ home was sold and her and her family (grandparents, parents, uncle, brother and sister) were forced to rent. Seeing her grandmother, a very stoic woman, upset at the kitchen sink, worrying about losing the house, a young Kelly made a decision to buy her grandmother another house when she got older. Seeing the distress that not having a family home had on her family, Kelly made it her business to help people buy houses, and to achieve financial security through real estate investing.
As you might be able to surmise, Kelly has a rich and powerful background that has carried her to the person she is today. Amongst her new delights with a puppy, to making her way in this world through the love of property and helping others out, Kelly was a delight to chat with and we hope you take away just as much as we did from this conversation.
As always, enjoy.
