When Melanie Claborn's husband left, taking their only source of income, Melanie faced the daunting task of supporting three children alone. She navigated emotional and practical challenges while recognizing red flags and struggling between heart and mind. Melanie recounts her move across states with her children, settling into a new home with unforeseen challenges, and balancing roles as a mother and student. Her determination led her to pursue a teaching degree and eventually find financial independence through real estate investing.

Melanie's real estate career took off with her first rental and flip, paying off a whopping $140,000 in debt by 2012. Quitting her W-2 job in 2017, she found a new purpose in the senior living industry after a personal experience with elderly care. 

From learning wholesale deals to managing a 13-property package, Melanie's story is one of strategic action and resilience. Tune in to understand her passion for transforming senior care and how she plans to expand the Thousand Springs community, creating a supportive environment for residents and their families.
