While I’ve really enjoyed gaining the experience of testing different rental markets - it definitely comes with some lessons learned. There are so many horror stories out there and I’m thankful I haven’t had to report one of those - knock on wood 🤗While I look back at some of the lessons I’ve learned thus far - I can’t help but think of the things I wish I knew before starting on this journey in the hopes to save someone time + money!

There is no doubt that Airbnb + VRBO properties have caught on like wildfire and I don’t know about you, but I was a little intimidated at first. But I was committed to learning about each of the industries & what is a better way to learn…than to do. Here are 4 things I learned while hosting Airbnb.

That got me thinking about okay what if someone isn’t quite ready to “do” yet. I wanted to get the skinny on the rental market from someone who’s been in the rental market for a loooooonnng time.

“Are rental properties a good investment” is a common googled question these days. When I see this I want to scream from the rooftops - YES GO BUY FIVE but I understand how that looks and sounds. Real estate is my life, of course I think it’s a good investment 😆 Although the belief runs strong, I’ll break down the numbers.

It is no wonder that you’re toying with the idea of purchasing an investment property. Rental markets are about as high as the real estate market is and they make for great long term investments.
