info_outlineIf you're considering the addition of a short-term rental to your income portfolio, you know I'd give you a high five! But did you know I encouraged my brother and his wife to do the same?
Joining me today are the incredibly amazing Jonathan and Hannah! Other than being family, they've lived abroad for nearly a decade and after moving back to the States in 2019 took the plunge into real estate investment and added a short-term rental to their portfolio.
We have a fun, honest, and transparent look at their story and how Airbnb fits into their goals as a couple.
Here are two of the biggest takeaways I had from our conversation:
1. You can be as involved or uninvolved with your short-term rental as you'd like. There's no wrong answer here and you can decide exactly what you want things to look like!
2. Short-term rentals can be a part of your real estate investment strategy or they can be the main thing. Again, no wrong answers here!
I can't wait for you to meet them, let's dive in!

Have you decided that short-term rentals are the best fit for your next real estate investment move?
Do you know vacation rentals have the opportunity to bring in much higher margins than long-term rentals but don't know where to start?
Would you rather learn from someone who figured it out and can give you the roadmap as opposed to stumbling through to figure things out on your own?
If so, then I've created the program for you!
It's called The 6-Figure Vacation Rental Roadmap and I can't wait for you to dive on in.
