In this episode of Living Off Rentals, we’re joined by someone who went from sportscaster to struggling entrepreneur, before finally finding the success and fulfillment he was looking for through short term rental investing.
Kyle Stanley spent a decade as a serial entrepreneur before discovering real estate. At 31, he took a chance on investing and quickly realized the power of short-term rentals to generate significant cash flow and transform his financial future.
What started as listing a spare room on Airbnb turned into a thriving short-term rental business. Kyle scaled his portfolio, built a management company that grew to 70+ units, sold that company, and now lives off his own rentals while teaching others how to make money through real estate investing via his podcast and platform, The Fearless Investors.
This episode is full of valuable insights on scaling with intention, deciding on a real estate exit strategy, creative financing, and more. Enjoy the show!
