1. What’s your name? Where are you located?
My name is Chantal Jones, and I’m currently located in Atlanta, GA.
2. What’s the name of your business?
Chantal Jones Realty & Jones Property Management Group
3. What’s was the inspiration for you to start a business?
I started a business because I realized that I would never achieve financial freedom solely working for others. I also believe in doing what makes you happy, and a major part of that for me was to determine how I spend my time on a daily basis. I’ve witnessed how quickly and unapologetically higher level executives will replace you, thus I never wanted to be the expendable employee.
4. Who do you look up to in business? Why?
I look up to my sister in business. I’ve seen how she has grown her online business from scratch, implemented systems and renewed her mindset to achieve her goals. She’s definitely an inspiration for me to continue pushing forward.
5. 90s R&B or 90s Rap
90s R&B all day!!
6. Tell me about your business and what are you trying to achieve
I’m a corporate housing investor and a realtor. I provide short term housing to business travelers coming into town for work, business meetings, etc. As a realtor, I work with buyers, sellers, and investors to achieve their individual goals and help them to begin or continue growing their wealth. I eventually desire to delve into development and other forms of commercial real estate investing.
7. Sweet plantain chips from Trader Joe’s…sooooo good!!
8. My biggest obstacle was changing my mindset to actually believe that I could leave my “secure” job as a New York State employee, and pursue and achieve success as a real estate investor. As well as analysis paralysis – I’m a bit of a perfectionist, and always want everything aligned and in order before proceeding. But, I’ve learned that done is better than perfect, and to simply get moving.
9. Legacy is generational wealth. Knowing that I’ve made a positive impact on this earth, helped others, created a roadmap, and ensured that my future children don’t have to start from the bottom and can simply continue where I’ve left off.
