WHO IS BLUE CHARIOT?

Blue Chariot was founded in 2015 by Jonathan Taylor ("J.T.") Smith to engage in the business of Residential Redevelopment — buying distressed houses to rehab into rentals. Along the way, J.T. got licensed as a Broker and partnered with Garrett White to expand into Blue Chariot Realty & Management.

Jonathan Taylor Smith

"Journey into the world of Real Estate Investing with ME ("J.T.") as your guide. No more delays, no more doubts! You've likely had years clouded by the fears and failures of others, whispering caution in your ear. Or at least that was my story! It's the old concern of trouble with tenants and late-night clogged toilets — right? But with my assistance, you can thrive where others may stumble. Let's shatter the hesitation together. I'm here, not just to invest in Real Estate for myself, but to empower YOU — be it your first or next investment property or buying your first or dream home."

"As a key leader in the Blue Chariot team since 2017, I partnered with J.T. to develop the vision for our Realty and Management services. We leveraged our extensive personal investing background to create a model focused on Investor success. I believe strongly in the foundation that Affordable Housing provides for families, and I work daily to ensure the operational stability of every unit we manage. Our goal is simple — to empower other Investors to build lasting wealth and join our community of driven Real Estate Professionals."

Blue Chariot Properties

“Residential Re-Development”... We find distressed houses and vacant lots. We then rehab those houses and build new homes on those lots – creating amazing places to live as rental homes for deserving tenants; or in some cases we sell these homes to new owner-occupants. Either way, this is both an Investment in Real Estate and in the communities where we operate.

Blue Chariot's Pine Forest Hideaway

Checkout the AFTER... Pine Forest Hideaway is our property in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. But BEFORE, it was a hoarder house... We bought it, rehabbed it, converted the garage into an additional unit - and now both units are performing very well as a highly rated Short-Term Rental. And we can help you find, obtain and rehab (if needed) an ideal property to be your first or next rental property.
