Alyssa Burton

Alyssa Burton is a real estate investor, agent, and entrepreneur operating in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Indiana. Founder of Inspired Investments, and Inspired Realty and Property Management, she has built a diverse portfolio since 2020 spanning single-family homes, multifamily properties, small apartment buildings, short-term rentals, self-storage, and land. Most of her portfolio is affordable housing, and fix-and-flip projects. 

Alyssa also has a passion for business acquisitions, believing real estate and business ownership can fuel one another’s growth. Her husband, Aaron, leads their business acquisition efforts, with their first successful acquisition complete (Smart Builders Group) and more to come.

Known as a trailblazer with big vision, Alyssa remains a constant student. She values the unique gifts, experiences, and perspectives every person in the room carries and loves bringing people together to connect, learn, and grow.

At the heart of Alyssa’s work is her Christian faith. As a Holy Spirit-led entrepreneur, she keeps her eyes on a greater goal: to run her race with endurance, kindness, integrity, and strength, knowing that God will equip for the calling. As a mother of three, including a child with special needs, Alyssa has built businesses with a baby on her hip—her family remains a motivation and heart behind her work. Her deep desire is that her work be meaningful, using what she has built to serve others, including through her nonprofit Inspired Retreats Inc.
