About Esther

Esther Jackson-Stowell
The Short Version

I help people turn their gifts into freedom.

I’m Esther Jackson-Stowell, a woman of faith, real estate investor, property management expert, community and business leader, and author. My mission is simple: to empower individuals to uncover their innate gifts and use them to create financial and personal freedom, while making a positive impact in the lives of others.

With more than 15 years of experience in real estate, business, and community leadership, I combine strategic investment knowledge with a genuine passion for service. Rooted in faith and resilience, I set out to inspire bold dreams, build generational wealth, and leave a legacy of impact and purpose.

I’m not an investor watching from a distance. I’m in the business, building the process, hiring the team, and answering the phone when it matters.
The Journey

From a single office to a portfolio.

  1. Roots

    Faith, family, and foundations

    Nigerian-born and a devoted woman of faith, I earned a Master’s in Public Administration and learned early that service and enterprise belong together.

  2. 2010

    Ekot Properties is founded

    I opened the doors on real estate and property management, helping clients navigate sales, management, and development with a long-term, legacy-minded view.

  3. 2015

    Ekot Real Estate launches

    A dedicated real estate arm to serve buyers, sellers, and investors, and to advocate for underserved communities along the way.

  4. Home Services

    Wasatch Cleaners, run like a tech company

    I built a residential cleaning company on real software, scheduling, customer portals, and data, proving that overlooked industries reward good systems.

  5. Software

    Tidumo & Akovex

    The systems that ran Wasatch became products: Tidumo for the cleaning industry, and Akovex to standardize how the whole portfolio operates.

  6. Today

    Ekot Group, and beyond

    A woman-owned holding company, a published voice, and a podcast host at The Broker’s Table, still building, still in the work.

What I Stand For

The reason behind the work.

Before any title, I’m a wife and a mother. Everything I build is in service of a bigger idea: that you can hold faith, family, and ambition at the same time, and thrive in all three.

  • Faith first, grounded, resilient, unafraid to lead from conviction.
  • Family & foster care, opening our home and raising the next generation.
  • Community & women in business, lifting others as we rise.
  • Generational legacy, building things meant to outlast us.
