Amidst familial complexities and racial tensions, Dana Frank has emerged as one of Seattle's most triumphant minority real estate investors. In Get Up and Get On It, Frank captivates readers by taking them through a life full of unique experiences and challenges. Born to parents determined to change the narrative their birth circumstances dictated, one side of Frank's life was full of music and celebrity. Her father was an accomplished drummer who played with some of the most celebrated jazz entertainers, and her uncle is legendary music producer Quincy Jones. The other side of Frank's life was full of conflicting moments of hardship and darkness, having to live under her father's iron fist and observe him engage in unconventional (and ethically questionable) real estate endeavors while also tagging along with him in moments of activism, picketing anti-Black banks and exposing redlining. Dana ultimately made a courageous decision to partner with her mother and break free from her father during an era when Black women faced impossible odds in pursuit of financial independence. Today, there is nothing Dana does not know about being a "Landlady." Get Up and Get On It recounts the invaluable business lessons she has inherited and redefined, transforming them into a source of pride, helping thousands of families secure housing to create their own wealth while building a rich legacy of third-generation wealth for her children.
Real estate mogul and philanthropist DANA FRANK shares the formula for creating generational wealth. Today, she is a real estate authority, helping families secure housing and embark on their wealth-creation journey. Dana manages a third-generation real estate business, Frank Enterprises, originally founded by her father in 1950 with a single-family home. Today, as the General Managing Partner of The TD Frank Family Properties, she oversees hundreds of multifamily apartments and continues to expand their real estate investments in Washington and Arizona. While attending the University of Washington, she obtained her real estate broker's license at 19 years old. Her overarching mission centers on creating generational wealth, a belief she holds as attainable and sustainable for those ready to put in the effort and reshape the narrative. Dana's guiding principle is that "Equity grows, cash erodes." She is committed to breaking the cycle of poverty by imparting wisdom on working smarter, not harder.
