Hi! I'm Ali

I’m here to help you on your real estate investing journey. I want to help you navigate overwhelm, conquer the challenges of this industry, and help you succeed with investments that make you feel proud.

Real estate investing has allowed for me to live life on my terms. There’s more to this life than going to work every day, and I couldn’t be more grateful I’ve been able to see it.

You can absolutely live the life you want to live, and I would love to help you achieve that.

What Makes Me Different

You can find investing advice anywhere on the internet. But unlike most of the suits telling you “exactly what you should do” to succeed as a real estate investor, I work with you to decide those steps. My engineering background helps me look at the puzzle pieces, while my psychology background lets me organize those puzzle pieces in a way that feels good to you. When you feel good, you succeed. That’s what I support you in.

My Story

I didn’t know I was going to end up in real estate investing. I had originally only investigated it as a possible way out of my corporate job, never thinking it would amount to anything in that regard.

One day I was sitting in my corporate cubicle when I received an email that ended up changing my life. There was nothing special about it except that there was an advertisement in it for a real estate investing opportunity that looked interesting.  I watched the webinar, contacted the company promoting it, and the next thing I knew I was signing on the dotted line for my very first real estate investment […]

    I didn’t know I was going to end up in real estate investing. I had originally only investigated it as a possible way out of my corporate job, never thinking it would amount to anything in that regard.

    One day I was sitting in my corporate cubicle when I received an email that ended up changing my life. There was nothing special about it except that there was an advertisement in it for a real estate investing opportunity that looked interesting.  I watched the webinar, contacted the company promoting it, and the next thing I knew I was signing on the dotted line for my very first real estate investment. 

    If you want to hear more about this investment, all of the craziness that ensued from it, and more about the corporate job I had as a top secret Aerospace Engineer, check out this episode of The Maverick Show, where Matt Bowles interviews me (in the Swiss Alps, while feeding me enough wine to get me to spill the beans):
    [Part 1] [Part 2]

    When I made that first investment, I hadn’t yet put two and two together that getting into real estate was going to end up being what got me out of corporate. I had researched it as a possible exit strategy, but when I started investing, it felt more like I was doing it simply as something smart to do with my money rather than something that was going to end up giving me my dream lifestyle.

    The biggest challenge in becoming an investor was that I had no idea how best to do it, where to look for the answers, and who I could trust along the journey. It seemed like a big, muddy puddle of options I had to figure out how to navigate.

    Not only did I struggle to figure those things out for myself, but when I began working with other investors, I noticed the majority of people I met were struggling with similar challenges.

    When I started Hipster Investments, I wanted to offer two things:

    1. A friendly face that people could actually trust; someone who wasn’t trying to sell them something or tell them how they should be doing it without putting any thought into what would work best for them as an individual
    2. The chance to help others learn real estate investing in a simpler way than what the typical guru or Google search instructs

    My goal with investors is to help alleviate the feeling of overwhelm that can be inherent with real estate investing. Part of this happens with simplifying the process, and part of it comes from helping people figure out exactly what will work best for them.

    I was fortunate to figure out what worked best for me as a real estate investor. Figuring this out gave me the dream lifestyle I had been looking for—a life based around location and time independence.

    My goal is to help you figure out what will work best for you, and what will help you meet your goals as an investor. Whether that’s by connecting you to amazing investment properties for sale, offering one-on-one coaching, group coaching, or speaking at your events, I’m available.

    Thank you for trusting me and Hipster to help you achieve your real estate investing dreams!
