In this episode, we sit down with Christine Traynor, from Victoria, BC, a seasoned real estate professional who has navigated the industry from multiple angles. She started as a paralegal in mortgage enforcement/foreclosures, became an appraiser in 2002, worked in for a high end real estate developer then buying a real estate appraisal firm, buying two more with creative financing and in 2024, sold those businesses for a seven figure exit.
What’s now keeping Christine busy is her current ventures as an Edmonton, Alberta real estate developer, multifamily investor, Christine shares a wealth of knowledge and insights that are sure to inspire.
For those looking to raise capital, specifically registered funds like RRSP’s and TFSA’s, Christine is involved with a Mutual Fund Trust as part of a 94 unit build so you’ll want to hear about that.
Christine shares how and why she chose not to invest in local, tenant friendly, unaffordable Victoria, BC for landlord friendly Edmonton which is something pretty much every BC, Ontario, Quebec investor from a tenant friendly jurisdiction is considering.
Christine is an advocate for empowering women around investing and finances, and is the host of She Builds Wealth, a (free) online community where she leads women in conversation around real estate investing, business, money and mindset. She is also the creator of She Builds Wealth: A Foundational Course for Women on Building Wealth in Real Estate.
