Alyssa is an investor and agent operating in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Indiana. Founder of Inspired Investments, Inspired Realty, and Inspired Property Management LLC her businesses support her momentum in growing her real estate portfolio. Alyssa's favorite thing about real estate is that there are so many strategies and types of investments to get into. Since 2020, she has built a diverse portfolio of 70 units (give or take revolving flip projects) across various states—including single-family homes, multifamily, small apartments, Airbnb rentals and on the nonresidential front—self-storage and land.
She is dedicated to the belief that Real Estate can be used as a powerful tool to create positive change, and her greatest satisfaction is using what she has built to help do the most amount of good. Alyssa is always looking to grow and learn more and enjoys bringing like-minded individuals together.
On a personal note, Alyssa is a special needs mother and her children play a major role in what motivates and drives her, along with her faith and dedication to living out her calling and purpose.

Lisa is a real estate agent and investment specialist serving Wisconsin and Minnesota. In 2022, she and her husband Johnathan purchased their first rental property with zero real estate experience. In less than three years, Lisa transformed from corporate engineer with a master's degree to full-time real estate investor and agent in 2025.
As an investor, she's built a portfolio of 10 rental units, and actively looking to scale, specializing in creative financing strategies that require less capital down while maintaining positive monthly cash flow- think BRRR method and seller financing. She also completes strategic flips in her local market when the numbers make sense.

She helps residential clients navigate the buying and selling process with clarity and confidence, often presenting sellers with creative options they never knew existed.
