About
InvestHer is dedicated to empowering women to take charge of their financial future through strategic property investing. Our mission is to help women build wealth, confidence, and freedom by providing the education and support they need to take action in creating successful investment property portfolios.
As part of the Propell Property Group, established in 2016, InvestHer was created to address the growing need for tailored support as women navigate the world of property investment. We understand that investing in property can be overwhelming and time consuming, which is why we offer expert investment property advisory services to help women develop personalised strategies, acquire the right properties, and maintain their portfolios to optimise results and build long-term wealth.
At InvestHer, we are passionate about increasing the number of Australian women investing in property—whether independently or with a partner. We believe that when women have the right education and mindset, they have the confidence to achieve financial security and create the wealth and freedom they deserve. Our goal is to inspire women to take action, build their investment portfolios, and, ultimately, transform their financial futures.
