Maura McGraw, Founder and CEO of Duratus Properties, is a real estate investor and Marine veteran. Prior to starting her business, Maura served ten years as a Marine Logistics Officer. She deployed to Afghanistan, Japan, and Korea where she managed cross-functional teams in dynamic environments.
In 2017, Maura left Active Duty military service so that she could obtain her Masters Degree in Real Estate from Georgetown University and pursue her dream of starting her own real estate investment firm. As the daughter of a successful real estate developer, she was able to hit the ground running in the real estate industry with many strategic connections already intact.
Together with her business partner Aziz Shunnara, Maura has grown Duratus Properties from zero in 2018 to a firm that generates 32M+ in annual revenue with $5M+ assets under management. To date, she has flipped 100+ houses.
Additionally, Maura co-founded a property management company called Freedom Ventures Property Management in 2019 and helped grow the company to over 600 assets under management in less than three years.
Maura also hosts the Mastering Real Estate podcast, where she reviews real estate books and interviews real estate experts from all over the world. She is a licensed real estate agent in Alabama with Waters Edge Realty, and Maura hosts the monthly Gulf Coast Real Estate Investor Group meetup on the last Friday of every month.
Maura is results-driven and is dedicated to growing Duratus Properties into a multimillion company that helps many people achieve financial freedom.
