About Us
Our Story: How It Began
Bekki’s journey from real estate investing to financial planning began after facing the challenges of “landlocked” debt following the 2007 real estate crash, she discovered an alternative financial vehicle that helped her overcome adversity and rebuild. This experience ignited her passion for helping others navigate financial uncertainty and plan for their futures.
In 2010, Bekki became licensed to assist individuals with their financial needs. By 2015, she founded Bekki Harper Financial and partnered with IFC, solidifying her commitment to service.
