About Flip to a Million realtor EJ Williams
Before flipping houses, EJ and Jason were working sales jobs. After being inspired by HGTV flips for years, the couple decided to take a leap of faith, and with the help of their friends, they started working on their first flip. It turned out to be a profitable venture, and the couple earned “around $60,000” from it. Hence, they decided to continue and have been flipping homes for about 16 years now.
The Chicago native is the founder of You Go Girl!, a nonprofit organization that transforms the lives of inner-city girls by teaching health and life skills.
The licensed real estate broker in Illinois and Georgia is also the co-founder of Ultimate Real Estate Group (boutique brokerage firm) and Ultimate Homes Chicago (investment and development company). EJ is further credited with developing the Ultimate Real Estate Blueprint (URB).
The “Real Estate Investor Broker & Designer” also serves on the “board for Cambridge Classical Academy and Vice Chair of the board for Humble Design Chicago,” as per her official website, Building Her Legacy.
She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Finance with a concentration in Real Estate Investments from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The Queen of Flips has been flipping one house at a time in Chicago. Now, with Flip to a Million, EJ and her partner are hoping to inspire and encourage others.
Speaking to HGTV about her debut series, she said:
“We are most excited for viewers to take this wild ride with us. We hope to encourage someone who has been wanting to get into real estate to take a chance and go for it!”
