The UNconference is a radical change to the ordinary conference experience; we all know that. To further push that idea, there are no speakers or panelists. You may be wondering, where's the content?! Instead, we are having “UNpanelists” that will be available every day during the day at or near the pool, to talk with UNattendees and share the valuable knowledge they have gathered through the years as successful property managers. This is worth the price of admission right here. This is a networking conference. If you're new to the industry, there's no better way to get connected. The fourth UNpanelist I would like to introduce is THE Janet Fields!!
Janet Fields was born and raised in Summerville, South Carolina. Many of Janet’s childhood summers were spent as child labor to assist her family while turning properties for the rental market. This is where Janet’s understanding and attraction to the property management industry began and where she learned the many fundamental aspects of the business.
Janet went to school locally at Trident Technical College for Graphic Design and later worked as a Government Contractor fabricating and installing communications for the Navy, Army, and Marines.
Janet began working officially in the property management industry in 2011. Just a few years later, she worked with her father to acquire her first book of business. Then in 2017, they did it again, and shortly after, Janet officially partnered with her father and recently bought him out so he could be happily retired & enjoying life!
Today Janet's focus at Oak Trust Properties is to remain a privately owned company that responds to the market promptly to provide services and support to professional investors to meet their financial goals.
When Janet isn't working in the business, she can be found exploring wildlife. She loves to be outside, tending to plants, digging in the garden, running, hiking, biking, and walking her dog, Taco. Janet can often be found outside with her children at the park playing frisbee or jumping bike ramps in the front park.
