About Jennie Brown
Property Investor, Professional Speaker and Mentor
Are you interested in investing in property for profit?
Hi! My name is Jennie Brown. Welcome to my website!
For over 20 years I have been experimenting with property as an investing tool. I’ve tried lots of different strategies, been to lots of different property, business and finance seminars, and learnt from my experiences.
I always knew that you could make lots of money out of being a property investor and I’ve found ways to make money from property investing using strategies that are a little out of the box. I use leverage to give me maximum return for as little effort as possible … this gives me great freedom!
The strategies I use include development, subdivision, strata titling, money partner & joint venture partners, renovations and more.
In addition to investing, I run seminars and mentoring programs to help people like you achieve your investing goals. I also speak at events all around Australia.
Here’s how I got started in property …
I grew up living in homes that were bought, renovated whilst we lived in them, and sold as they were finished. My father was skilled in many areas of building and selling, and ensured that these skills were passed on.
One of the first houses my Dad bought was a derelict old house, condemned, with a dirt floor in the kitchen / dining area. When it rained, the roof leaked, and we would have every container we could find spread out over the floor to catch the drips! We even slept with containers on our beds!
At the age of 20 my first mentor, my Dad, decided I needed to buy a house and shortlisted three or four which we went to look at. We settled on a deceased estate – outside toilet (which the “dunny” man came and emptied once a week), no back door, and old wood stove and a brick chimney for a kitchen, “depression” carpet on the floor and smelling bad!
I was working on a salary of around $16,000 and it cost $28,000. To finance it, my Dad told me to dress nicely, smile prettily and ask sweetly. Which I did! The bank manager gave me a credit card with a limit of $5000 for the deposit, and a loan of $32,000 so I could renovate!
With the help of Dad, and a lot of the local lads, I moved in and started renovating. A number of years later I sold it for $94,500.
Since the purchase of that first property, I have completed over 40 property transactions, including subdivisions, renovations, strata titling, multi-unit development and building projects. I also manage projects for other people.
Currently, we have several projects on the go, including a 19 unit development, building projects, and splitter blocks. I’m also in the early stages of more unit development and strata titling projects.
I love to watch people grow and succeed, and I believe that we can help you achieve what you want!
Bless ya!

About JennieBrown.com.au
At JennieBrown.com.au we are passionate about sharing our good fortune. We believe it is our responsibility to support those less fortunate than us.
10% of every sale made through this website goes to supporting sponsored children, and similar charities. We even sponsor animals! This means that every time you attend a seminar, or participate in our mentoring programs, or buy a product, you are helping to support our “kids” and "animals" and making a huge difference in the lives of others!
We have four sponsored children in Africa, and, in 2008, because of support from our clients, we were able to sponsor two more children, in Thailand.
In addition, in 2011, we sponsored an orphan elephant, "Lempaute", through the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya.
We’re also donating to Destiny Rescue. Destiny Rescue rescues children directly from brothels and red light districts, protects vulnerable children through prostitution prevention programs, and provides schooling, vocation training, medical help, counselling and meets the daily needs of the kids.
So, on behalf of our kids and the animals, thank you! And if you’d like to express your own gratitude by helping out these kids or animals, you can of course sign up for a seminar! Better still, you could sponsor your own child or animal, or give a donation to a sponsorship organization to help out.
You will not only bless the child, but their families, their communities, and their country.
We sponsor our children through World Vision. For more information check out www.worldvision.com.au/

In 2004, Jennie and Warren were able to spend a week in Senegal, West Africa, visiting four of their sponsored children. If you’d like to read a “Gold Nugget” Jennie wrote about their visit, click here.
