Beth O’Brien didn’t just step into the mortgage industry — she redefined it.
In this episode of Between 2 Hats LFG, we sit down with the powerhouse herself — Beth O’Brien, Founder & CEO of Encore Finance, and one of the most influential women in real estate finance. With over $20 billion in transactions under her belt and a legacy that spans Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Auction.com, and CoreVest, Beth breaks down the mindset, grit, and moves that built her empire.
We dive into her transition from Wall Street to real estate, how she became a pioneer in the SFR (Single-Family Rental) finance world, and why new generations are shifting toward renting. Beth also shares unfiltered insights on the mortgage industry, capital markets, and what it takes to lead with power in a male-dominated space.
From law school to loan strategies, she’s done it all — and she’s not slowing down.
This episode is for the builders, the risk-takers, and anyone who’s ready to learn from one of the most badass leaders in the game.
