There is no force more powerful than a woman who is all set to rise. Gender segregation has been an inherent part of the world since time immemorial. So much so, that the works of women in business are often ignored due to the stereotypes of the patriarchal society. However, by breaking the glass ceilings and sexist policies of the world, women have been quite successful in bridging the gap and leading towards the path to success. One such inspiring woman entrepreneur is Khushboo Jha, who is all set to revolutionize the real estate game in Canada through her brainchild, BuyProperly. The real estate market is sure to make you feel overwhelmed once you think about investing in the same. It is exactly where BuyProperly, an investing platform dedicated to making real estate investments available to every Canadian, comes into the picture.
How did it happen?
According to Khushboo, the whole system of investing in real estate was pretty complicated in Canada. Just when she thought of giving up, she started looking for options to make the scenario better instead. She learned that in Australia and the UK, simplified models to make real estate investments better were coming up through fractional investment models of various forms. This made her explore further and she came up with the idea of BuyProperly, in an attempt to create a solution for the Canadians.
She soon jumped into the bandwagon of being an entrepreneur and BuyProperly hit the market right before the pandemic struck. Her path towards being a young woman entrepreneur in Canada wasn’t that easy in the beginning. It wasn’t traditional either. Soon after completing her education at the University of Pennsylvania, Khushboo worked with Amazon and launched two business verticals for the e-commerce giant. During this, she became well-aware of the positives of automation in technology. However, she didn’t quite know then that her experience with Amazon would ultimately prove fruitful for her as an upcoming real estate honcho in Canada.
