Sabrina Franco's journey to success is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of community. Born into a life of limitations, Sabrina's childhood was marked by challenges that shaped her into the unstoppable woman she is today. Arriving in the United States in her teenage years, she brought with her a burning desire to transform her life and the lives of those around her.

For 13 years, Sabrina thrived in the banking industry, gaining invaluable experience and honing her financial acumen. However, the birth of her daughter was a turning point. Determined not to spend her life trading time for money, Sabrina, alongside her husband Carlos Franco, ventured into the world of real estate investing. They began with fix and flip projects, to develop necessary skills in construction, later expanding their portfolio to include rental properties. This transition not only marked a new chapter in their lives but also laid the foundation for their future success.

As Sabrina's expertise grew, so did her reputation. Her success in managing her partners' investments attracted the attention of the Hispanic community, eager to learn from her experience. A pivotal moment came when someone questioned her efforts to educate Latinos in real estate investing, suggesting it was taking away labor workers. This comment ignited a fire within Sabrina, compelling her to empower her community even more fervently.

Today, Sabrina Franco is a beacon of inspiration, creating legacies through her unwavering commitment to education and empowerment. She passionately believes in the power of leverage, using it to create value for her partners and her community of students. Through her guidance, many have found the path to financial freedom, building their own legacies and transforming their lives. She firmly believes that transforming your life begins with developing skills that enable you to add value. She advocates that the true power of leverage and the effectiveness of collective growth only manifest when each individual brings something valuable to the table. According to Sabrina, acquiring and honing skills not only enhances personal capabilities but also fosters a collaborative environment where everyone benefits. By focusing on skill development, she teaches her community that success is a shared journey, built on mutual contribution and empowerment.

Sabrina Franco's story is not just one of personal success, but of communal upliftment. Her journey from a constrained childhood to a thriving real estate investor and mentor illustrates the transformative power of knowledge and the impact of sharing it. Sabrina continues to inspire and lead, proving that with determination and the right support, anything is possible.

Jasmine Bingham is currently an Exchange Coordinator at U.S. 1031 Exchange Services, Inc. The company is approaching its 40th year servicing the nation with tax-deferred exchanges for commercial and residential real estate, vacant land, and Delaware Statutory Trusts.

Jasmine is a securities analyst and financial writer, by training. She is a graduate of Fordham University, with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics and Finance. Over almost a decade at Smith Barney, Harris, Upham & Co., Inc., Jasmine performed research, analysis, and financial reporting for multiple sectors in U.S. Equity Research (including paper and forest products; healthcare; energy, semiconductors; closed-end country funds; building materials companies; and homebuilders)

A move to Goldman Sachs & Co., Inc., in the early nineties led to Jasmine initiating coverage of top-tier publicly traded manufactured housing companies (including Clayton Homes, Champion Enterprises, Fleetwood Enterprises, and Oakwood Homes), and conventional U.S. homebuilders (including Centex, Kaufman & Broad, Pulte Homes, Ryland Homes, and Del Webb).

After five exciting years at Goldman, Jasmine decided to move to Orange County, California, to devote the next twelve years to raising her daughter. Following this not-so-relaxing hiatus from the workplace, Jasmine decided to embark on an entrepreneurial endeavor.

Balcony 7 Media and Publishing, Inc. was created to support Jasmine’s passion to improve children’s literacy with rhyming illustrated children’s books, that can twist the tongues of even adults. But that was the whole point: engaging with your children with stories that can tickle you both with smart, sassy, cartoon animals that only talk in rhyme. After the trilogy was published, Jasmine was challenged to write Book 4 in metered rhyme. The challenger was Monte Schultz, at the Writers Conference his father Charles Schulz, originally started in Santa Barbara, CA. Jasmine balked at Monte’s challenge, saying it was impossible. Monte told Jasmine to read The Golden Gate, by Vikram Seth, a novel written entirely in verse. Jasmine fell in love with the book and promptly wrote an Amazon Review entirely in verse. Following up with the prompt writing of Book 4 in metered rhyme over the next few months, which one reviewer called “flawless”.

As Editor-in-Chief and Manager, Jasmine nurtured a slew of new authors, published over a dozen books, edited all of them, and ghost-wrote chunks of others. Genres ranged from crime drama, international espionage, cancer memoir, political memoir, civil jury trial law manual (used for CE credits), juvenile fiction, and more children’s books.

At that time, the publishing industry was going through monumental challenges: Amazon’s growing wholesale discount; book sellers demand for a return policy; the adoption of Common Core (and subsequent shadow-banning of books without); and the growing volume of digital offerings crowding the ethernet with so much fluff and so little quality.

The five-year run was expensive, comparable to the cost of an uber-MBA. What was learned includes building websites and managing the backend; publishing an editorial blog for the company and its authors; managing numerous sites and social media platforms under our umbrella; creating countless blogs, posts, images, metadata and copy for both print and digital spaces. A great run.

Finding the next career was difficult. While the Street will forever be in Jasmine’s blood, it remained a passion, to be followed at a safe distance. The pandemic helped steer Jasmine out of California to Sarasota, Florida. The final decision to move was finding a job that saves people taxes every single day—as exchange coordinator for U.S. 1031 Exchange Services. Not only is this niche gratifying, it is also continuously challenging as each deal is unique, and it must be done within a time limit. Jasmine is very attuned to deal complexities and absolute deadlines. This is a great fit.

And now, watching our country devolve into an unrecognizable shell of what was once a great nation, Jasmine will channel that passion to the Financial Policy Council. With a promise to engage as needed, full skill sets in place, to help shepherd our country back toward its Constitutional roots.
