25 JUL 2023 · If you have been a real estate agent for any length of time, the thought of using your skillset to purchase rental properties has probably crossed your mind. Many agents, like our own Kylee Royer, are wondering how to make the most of their market expertise. So, this week, Kylee interviews the other moms about their own experiences - the good, the bad, and the ugly - of buying, maintaining, and renting properties. From how we screen our Air BnB clients to setting the expectations on an investment, this podcast will give you a look at how these moms are making it work. When you manage a property, you could end up with a consistent revenue stream, or three-feet deep in water while you are nine months pregnant, struggling to fix a broken pipe. Sarah leads off the discussion about the highs, lows, and insider knowledge you need to know before you buy. We hope you enjoy, see you next week!
