Meet Stacy Rossetti of REI USA

Today we’d like to introduce you to Stacy Rossetti.

Hi Stacy, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
As a real estate investing expert and coach, I have built my name on the results I have created – for myself and for my students. Investing in real estate has changed my life, opening doors for me and my family and affording me an outlet for all my creative and entrepreneurial energy. Through scaling up a renovation company in Atlanta with hundreds of transactions to learning to invest passively through creative financing deals and storage facilities, I have not only overcome many trials and tribulations but systematized and organized my days so that I can run several successful businesses.

Day after day, I work hard at what I do, striving to stay ahead of the curve by building on my knowledge and making shrewd decisions. This did not happen overnight, of course. My early days in real estate were slow, exhausting and hard, but little by little, I earned a sense of what worked and what I needed to do to achieve consistent results. Because I taught myself all this learning through experience and mentors, the process was gradual and required the utmost diligence on my part.

Today, I own and operate REI USA and StorageNerds. REI USA is an online education and networking platform that is exactly the tool that I would have wanted when I was getting my start, something that aspiring and established investors can turn to, a means to cutting your learning curve dramatically. Together my husband Pete and I currently own and operate eight storage facilities. Investing in self-storage is our passion and how we have decided to build wealth. It is the best-kept secret in the investing world and I don’t know why more are not investing in it.

In addition to investing in real estate myself, I have since discovered another passion in my life – coaching and empowering others. Whenever I see that I have guided someone toward a breakthrough or helped them to transform themselves professionally, I feel deep fulfillment, confident that I am on the right path and reinvigorated to go out and do even more.

As a coach and teacher, I specialize in helping my students navigate real estate investing, rehabbing, and storage facilities. These are all complex, involved topics, but I have honed my ability to communicate the intricacies – and found ways to demystify them efficiently. Seeing the light go off in my student’s eyes, I know that the magic is happening, and in everyone I teach, I recognize myself – wide-eyed, hopeful, firmly believing in all the opportunities that real estate investing can present. For years, I have connected with my students through workshops, offering a glimpse into the thought processes and techniques that have led to my success.

In order to share my knowledge with as large an audience as possible, I have currently expanding beyond person-to-person coaching, developing a Self-Storage Investing mastermind and group coaching mentorship called StorageNerds. This mastermind draw on my years of experience in real estate and self-storage investing and break down my ideas and strategies in a way that even beginners can digest.

My passion is to help beginner investors learn to invest in real estate and my mission is Affordable Financial Literacy. REI USA embodies this mission by engaging those that truly want to learn to invest in real estate but don’t want to go broke doing it. Over the course of the last five years, my husband and I have spent many years perfecting how we find, fund and run our storage facilities so we can be anywhere in the world. Our facilities are truly passive income and we love sharing our tips and tricks on how we manage them through our StorageNerds mastermind.

Renovating my first home in 2012, I knew that I had stumbled upon something big – a calling, a vocation, a passion. There was no doubt in my mind that I was going to stick with real estate and give it everything that I had. Collaborating with my husband has been a bonus, and I am grateful every day for the career that he and I have created together.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Investing in real estate is not easy. Every property you buy is a different story and everything in real estate always happens at the 11th hour. You have to have a strong stomach to invest in real estate. Luckily self-storage is much easier than residential investing and I am very good at automating and systematizing most things AND delegating what I don’t want to do to someone else.

Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about REI USA?
REI USA is an online education and networking platform that caters to those that want to invest in real estate by putting you in front of expert investors across the country that actually want to teach you through live webinars. Think of REI USA as an online community college for wanna-be real estate investors where you can learn to invest in every niche in the industry.

Who else deserves credit in your story?
Yes, I have had been in several masterminds and coaching programs along the way, including FortuneBuilders and the Ask Method, as well as with Nic Kusmich.
