15 year old real estate investor

15 Year Old Buys Her 2nd Investment Property in Florida

Willow Tufano is a 15 year old girl that has just purchased her second investment home in Port Charlotte, FL.

She found this steal on the MLS for $17,500 and began renovations on Monday.

Where does Tufano get the money to buy houses? She finds free items, fixes them up, and sells them on Craigslist. She saved up half the money and convinced her mom to split the cost with her.

ABC News picked up the story last week and shared this about the remarkable teenager:

She’s been on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” where the host gifted her $10,000 to spend at Ace Hardware, in addition to a new clothes dryer. She’s been interviewed by ABC’s “World News” and NPR and even for a television show in South Korea. She’s accustomed to television crews and media types clamoring for her attention, her mother says.

By the time she is 18 and can legally own a home in Florida, Willow has a goal to own 10 houses.
