Shelby served in the Army for 6 years and got out as a Captain in the beginning of 2018 to dive into Real Estate full time as both a broker & investor. Out the gate, she was recognized as the Keller Williams Rookie of the Year all of North & South Carolina closing 48 transactions. She moved on to create a traditional team, Five Pillars Realty Group, which closed 500+ transactions in the first 2.5 years. In mid-2021, Five Pillars evolved out of the traditional team and into what it is today -- “Five Pillars Nation.” Five Pillars Nation is where Agents go to stop being Agents & start being Business Owners. It’s not a firm, it’s not a team. It’s an entrepreneur incubator that allows individuals to grow their empires alongside peers. Shelby also has years of experience flipping, wholesaling, and acquiring rentals (both short-term and long-term). She founded “Pints & Properties,” a nationwide Real Estate Investors and is passionate about helping real estate agents use their active income to build passive income portfolios.
