Nov 17, 2023

Home maintenance can be daunting. There is always something to do. With winter coming, there are a few things that you should absolutely not neglect. Keeping up with these 4 main areas in your home will help protect your investment and save you big maintenance and repair issues down the road.

Thank you to our partner this episode, ChipDrop. ChipDrop helps gardeners get free wood chip mulch and helps arborists find cheap, local sites to drop their wood chips and logs. But we all know it's more than that. ChipDrop is keeping valuable biomass in the community rather than sending it to the landfill. We're helping people grow food. We're helping small businesses keep their margins and stay in the black. We're supporting micro-organism communities, we're building soil and keeping homes warm with firewood, providing workouts, I mean, it's limitless!

We made a podcast! The Laddercast is geared towards helping women get into real estate. We believe there is power in homeownership and have seen firsthand the the amazing changes that can happen when you buy JUST ONE HOME. Follow along with us as we tell you our stories of buying our first houses, next houses, investment properties and give you all the tips and tricks you need to know when considering getting on the Property Ladder. 

The Laddercast hosts are real estate owners and industry professionals in Portland, Oregon: 

  • Sorcha Porter, an Oregon Licensed Real Estate Agent, sold a primary residence for a profit and used that gain to change her life's trajectory and travel the world.

  • Shannon McAlister, a nationally licensed mortgage lender, NMLS 885982, learned how to do mortgages from an investor who owned 50+ properties; she now owns investment property and teaches other people how to become successful real estate owners.
