ABOUT
Louisa Davis
Louisa Davis, Owner of Rise Equity Group, brings a wealth of experience and a deeply personal connection to her work in real estate investing. A former top-producing residential real estate agent, Louisa’s real estate career began in 2016. She quickly ascended the ranks as a member of the #1 Top Team of Two in Virginia for her office in the largest brokerage in Washington, D.C., and Virginia. Over eight years, Louisa and her team guided clients through more than $150M in transactions, earning accolades such as Washingtonian Best and RealTrends America’s Best Real Estate Professionals.
Her journey into real estate investing was sparked by a desire to create a more stable and flexible financial future for her family. Recognizing the challenges of fluctuating commission-based income, Louisa first pursued single-family rental investments before discovering the efficiency and scalability of multifamily syndications. Since 2021, she has been directly involved in $65M worth of multifamily investments, partnering with industry leaders to deliver strong returns for investors.
Louisa’s work is also deeply informed by her background in politics, where she gained firsthand insight into the concerns of thousands of people regarding the instability of financial safety nets in our country. Witnessing the growing gridlock and partisanship in government strengthened her belief in the need for proactive, self-reliant financial planning—a perspective she integrates into her approach to real estate investing.
At Rise Equity Group, Louisa channels her passion for education and empowerment, helping busy professionals and parents unlock the benefits of passive real estate investing. Her thoughtful and personalized approach is rooted in understanding personal, financial, and family goals, making her a trusted partner for those looking to diversify their portfolios while maintaining their demanding careers.
When not analyzing deals or collaborating with investment partners to improve properties, Louisa treasures time spent with her husband and two young children. Whether exploring new libraries, biking around the neighborhood, or embarking on road trips along the East Coast, she prioritizes creating a lifestyle rich in meaningful connections and long-term financial security.
