Built My Property Portfolio from Scratch – The Untold Truth Behind the Prestige

Welcome to my world.

I’m Sarah E. Stephenson, a proprietor, storyteller, model, actor, uni student, and the unapologetic boss lady behind SARAH WENNO PROPERTY LTD & SWENNO INVEST LIMITED. This blog marks the beginning of a raw, honest, and revolutionary journey into the property world, told from the perspective of someone who didn’t inherit wealth, has no safety net, and doesn't follow the traditional path.

Over the past few years, I’ve battled through financial hardship, discrimination, health emergencies, and legal nightmares – all while building a property portfolio from the ground up. No silver spoon. No shortcuts. Just grit, vision, and relentless determination.

Why am I sharing this?
Because behind every glossy brochure and polished developer pitch lies a story they don’t want you to hear. I’ve been misled, overcharged, and gaslit by companies that thought I wouldn’t fight back. But I did. And I’m still standing.
Don't say 'if' you make it but say 'when' you make it.

This mantra from my beloved mother, RIP Dr Syamsidar A. Jacob, πŸ’œ, has stuck with me forever. I cherish these words, which have shaped me into who I am today. 

This blog is my platform to:

Expose the truth behind property buying nightmares.
Empower others who feel silenced or stuck.
Educate first-time buyers and aspiring landlords.
Celebrate wins – no matter how small – because every step forward counts.
Whether you’re here to learn, relate, or simply witness the journey, I welcome you with open arms. This is more than property. It’s about reclaiming power, rewriting narratives, and demonstrating to
the world what resilience truly looks like.

Stay tuned.
The following post will explore my first property purchase—the risks I took, the lessons I learned, and the moment I realised I was building something bigger than myself.


With love and fire,

Sarah E. Stephenson
Unapologetic Boss Lady
