Owning rental properties is fun… until you’re evicting tenants while on maternity leave. 😅

Yes, we have a property manager—and she’s amazing.

But “passive” rental income isn’t always very passive. 👎

We recently had to evict tenants for nonpayment, and when we finally got the property back … they left it a WRECK.

A few of the surprises waiting for us:
🗑️ So much stuff left behind that we have to rent a dumpster
🎨 A child’s artwork covering kitchen cabinets, walls & doors
🤢 A freezer full of food… and overflowing with maggots
💸 A broken washer
🪟 Destroyed blinds in every room
🛠️ And plenty more damage we’re still uncovering

Let’s just say the security deposit won’t come CLOSE to covering this one.

I’m not sharing this so you’ll feel sorry for me.

After 14 years of investing in real estate, this is honestly the worst tenant situation we’ve experienced. I’m grateful this hasn’t been the norm—and VERY grateful the non-paying tenants are finally out. 🙌

But this is also one of the reasons we got into private lending.

I love real estate. I just don’t always love everything that comes with owning the real estate. 😂

With a private debt fund like Mach Speed Lending, investors can get exposure to real estate-backed lending without personally dealing with tenants, toilets, evictions, dumpsters… or maggot-filled freezers. 🤢

Our investors currently target annual returns of 10–11%, depending on investment amount, while our team handles the lending and day-to-day headaches.

Is it completely risk-free or guaranteed? Of course not. No investment is.

But after a day like today, passive investing looks pretty darn attractive. 😉

If you’re curious about how private lending compares to owning rentals yourself, shoot me a message. 📩 I’m always happy to share what we’ve learned from doing both.

Real estate investing is often associated with buying, owning, and managing properties.

But for many investors, the question is not only

“How can I access real estate?”

It is also:

“How can I participate without taking on another operational responsibility?”

Private real estate debt provides a different approach by allowing investors to participate from the lending side, where capital is deployed into real estate-backed loans rather than directly managing properties.

Mach Speed Lending focuses on a structured lending strategy designed for investors who value real estate exposure, disciplined processes, and a more hands-off approach.

🎂 Tomorrow, I turn 40…

And I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around that sentence.

Because I can still vividly remember my dad turning 40.

We threw him an “OVER THE HILL” party. 😂 Forty seemed so OLD.

And now… somehow… I’M THERE.

How did that happen so fast?

A few days ago, I told a friend I was feeling a little sad about closing the chapter on my 30s. 😢 Bittersweet, really.

She looked at me and said:
“Bekah, just think about ALL you’ve done and ALL you’ve seen.”

➡️ And that stopped me in my tracks.

Because right before I turned 30, I nearly died giving birth to our first child.

I entered my 30s having come face-to-face with just how fragile life can be.

But God has redeemed the time. 🕰️

He healed me.
And then He gave me 10 more years.

10 more years of life.
3 more children.
A new home.
Multiple businesses.
More time freedom.
And more blessings than I could ever count.

When I think about it that way, turning 40 doesn’t feel like something to mourn.

It feels like a gift. 🎁

We aren’t promised tomorrow, and the older I get, the more I understand just how precious an ordinary day really is.

I heard someone say once that “age is a mindset.”

So I’m choosing to walk into 40 with joy, gratitude, and expectation for what God has in store for this next decade. 🙏

And just in case anyone is concerned about this whole “over the hill” thing…

I just got the green light at my postpartum doctor’s appointment to swim again.

And four kids and almost 40 years later, I can still do a flip. 😂🙌

So I’d say we’re doing just fine over here (maybe just a little crazy to post a picture of myself on LinkedIn in my bathing suit).

Cheers to 40! 🥂

I’m so grateful I get to be here.

Real estate investing is not limited to owning properties.

There is another side of the market: lending.

Instead of managing tenants, handling repairs, or overseeing daily operations, accredited investors can explore professionally managed private lending backed by real estate.

Mach Speed Lending helps investors participate in the lender’s position through structured, real estate-backed loans designed around disciplined underwriting and thoughtful risk management.

The right investment strategy starts with understanding your options.

Today is the day. 💕👶

If you think about it, would you say a quick prayer for our family?

This morning we're heading to the hospital to welcome our 4th child into the world. 🌎 We are so grateful that God has entrusted us with another little life to love, raise, and disciple. He is so good!

I'll also say this...

➡️ Pregnancy and delivery are no joke. 😅

This will be my 4th C-section after experiencing serious complications with the birth of our first child. Ever since then, this has been the safest path for our family. While I can't wait to meet our little girl, I also know recovery won't be easy.

So today, I just want to give a shout-out to all the moms out there. ❤️ Whether you've had a C-section, a long labor, or a completely different journey, motherhood requires incredible strength. You have my respect! 🙌

I'll also be stepping away for maternity leave over the next few months.

Despite what some people think, maternity leave definitely isn't a vacation. 😂 It'll be filled with sleepless nights, diapers, feedings, brain fog... and, Lord willing, lots of newborn snuggles. 🥰

I'm especially thankful for my amazing business partners at Mach Speed Lending, who will be holding down the fort while I'm away. Knowing our investors, borrowers, and relationships are in such capable hands gives me tremendous peace.

Thank you to everyone who has encouraged us throughout this pregnancy. Your messages, prayers, and kindness have meant more than you know.

Prayers for a safe delivery, healthy baby, and smooth recovery would mean the world to us. 🙏

🤔 Ever wonder why so few financial advisors talk about private investments?

💡 The answer may have more to do with incentives than investments.

I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers here. 😅

I'm simply encouraging investors to understand the incentives behind the advice they're given.

For many financial advisors, compensation is based on Assets Under Management (AUM). If a client moves a portion of their portfolio into an alternative investment—like private real estate debt—🏘️ that often means fewer assets they manage and, in many cases, less revenue for their business.

That doesn't make financial advisors bad people.

In fact, I have several close friends who are financial advisors, and I respect what they do tremendously. 👏 A good advisor can provide incredible value through financial planning, tax strategies, behavioral coaching, estate planning, and helping clients avoid costly mistakes.

But it's also worth recognizing that every business has incentives. 📊

As investors, it's healthy to ask questions like:

💭 How is my advisor compensated?
💭 Are there investment options that aren't being discussed?
💭 If I wanted to diversify into alternative assets, would I receive objective advice?

None of this is meant to suggest you should fire your financial advisor. 🚫

I actually think many investors benefit from having one.

But I also believe the best advisors welcome these conversations, are transparent about how they're compensated, and are willing to help clients make decisions that are truly in the client's best interest—even if it means managing a smaller portion of their assets. 🤝

At Mach Speed Lending, we're not trying to replace financial advisors.

We're simply another tool that may make sense for a portion of someone's portfolio, depending on their goals, risk tolerance, and overall financial plan.

The best financial professionals don't feel threatened by collaboration.

They embrace it. 🙌

I'd love to hear from both investors and financial advisors:

👇 How do you think people should balance traditional investments with alternative assets?

Sales isn't about convincing people to buy.

It's about having the courage to keep showing up till someone does.

This past weekend, two of my kids got a little crash course in sales. 📚 I've spent 16+ years in this space, so I felt fairly equipped to give them some tips. 🤪

They spent hours making clay earrings, mixed up a batch of lemonade 🍋, and set up shop at a local park.

It was HOT. ☀️🥵

And... almost nobody was there.

At first, they were discouraged. They looked around wondering if anyone would ever stop by.

So instead of packing up, we waited.

We listened (and danced 😄🎵) to Forrest Frank, talked about different sales tactics, discussed how to look people in the eyes and greet them with confidence, and reminded ourselves that you can't make a sale if you quit before the customers arrive.

Slowly, people started walking by. 🚶♀️🚶♂️

They were incredibly kind and encouraging. They complimented the kids' creativity 🎨, bought cups of lemonade 🍋, picked out handmade earrings 💛, and cheered them on.

Then a birthday party at the park let out... 🎉

Suddenly more people stopped by.

By the end of the afternoon, they had sold far more lemonade and earrings than they ever expected. 🙌

And to top it off, a friendly neighbor surprised them with an entire pizza 🍕 just because they wanted to encourage these young entrepreneurs.

But the best part came the next day. ❤️

The kids decided they wanted to use **all** of the money they earned to treat our family to ice cream. 🍦

Not some of it.

All of it.

My husband and I were honestly touched. They could have spent that money on toys or saved it for themselves, but they chose generosity instead. 🥹

As parents, those are the moments you hope for.

Yes, I want my kids to learn about business, sales, and entrepreneurship.

But even more than that, I want them to learn perseverance, gratitude, and generosity. 🙏

This weekend reminded me that sometimes the greatest return isn't measured in dollars earned...

It's measured in the character that's built along the way. 🙏❤️

What's a life lesson your kids have taught you that you weren't expecting?

This is basically my current productivity strategy...☀️

It’s 101° in Virginia today.

I’m 37+ weeks pregnant with baby #4 (coming July 13 via c-section), I have approximately 250 things left on my to-do list before maternity leave...
..and yet all I really want to do is take naps and float in the pool. 🤣🏊‍♀️

Anyone else ever hit a season where you’re just... exhausted?

➡️ Maybe it’s because you’re raising little kids.
➡️ Maybe work has been nonstop.
Maybe you’re caring for aging parents.
➡️ Maybe you’re walking through something no one else can see.

Whatever the reason, sometimes the most productive thing we can do is admit we need a little rest.

This holiday weekend, I’m giving myself permission to slow down (at least a little 😅), soak up some family time, and remember how incredibly blessed we are to live in a country where we enjoy so many freedoms. 🙏

Wishing you and your family a safe, restful, and joyful 4th of July! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

And if your only accomplishment this weekend is staying cool... I’d say that’s a win. 😉
