LaKristen Spiller

Ser dueño de una casa propia es un sueño que comparten innumerables estadounidenses, y puede estar motivado por diversos factores, desde el deseo de aumentar el patrimonio personal hasta el de tener un lugar donde criar a la familia. Y aunque esas razones sin duda eran válidas para LaKristen Spiller, natural de Blytheville, Arkansas, hubo otro factor que también impulsó su deseo de convertirse en propietaria: que su hijo creciera con su propio espacio.,

As a child, LaKristen was surrounded by family, so much so that for most of her youth, she shared a room. And while not one to complain, she quietly promised herself that one day she would have her own space and that her children would as well. After leaving town to attend college and graduate school, LaKristen returned home to a good job and a bright future, yet her dream of owning something of her own was put on hold when she became a single mother, once again living with her mom and sharing a space. Her situation, coupled with her strong sense of financial responsibility, led her to Uplift Capital Partners, where financial counselors developed a plan to help her save toward a down payment, and ultimately the financing to purchase her own home. Today, she’s renovating what will not only become a home for her and her son, but an asset that will help them build wealth for the future.
