Dr. Calvin & Peggy Lowe

Founders

Hello Everyone. You may know me as Cal, Dr. Lowe, or maybe even Calvis! As I look back at my life, I’m so grateful for good times spent with family and friends. But when I think of my 30 years as a practicing emergency medicine physician, I realize the years have taken their toll on me and the one thing I wish I could get back is time—time I didn’t get to spend with Peggy and our kids. I really paid the price and missed out on many special moments with them. So after a lot of careful thought, Peggy and I have decided to take a journey into multifamily apartment investing.

We’ve learned so much this past year from people who were tired of their W2 jobs, people like me who wanted more time with family or who just wanted more free time. We had some initial reservations but we’ve seen firsthand how passive income works hard, so we don’t have to! I’ve learned that I can actually retire much earlier than anticipated. Now I wish I had made the decision sooner!

We’d love to share with you all that we’ve learned. We’re announcing (drumroll here!) PEACEquity, our exciting new venture. The name has special meaning, as each letter is for our family: Peggy, Elizabeth, Austin, and me, Calvin. As the name suggests, we’re already experiencing peace as we keep learning more. We had tons of questions when we started, and we didn’t move forward until they were all answered. If you’d like to learn more, we can chat and you can decide for yourself if passive investing is right for you.

Thanks,

Cal and Peggy
