In this episode of the Austin Palacios Podcast, we sit down with Rachel Olivier, a Washington D.C.-based consultant and Airbnb entrepreneur, to dive into her journey from scrolling Instagram ads to building a thriving short-term rental business. Rachel shares her path into Airbnb investing, starting with rental arbitrage and transitioning into a successful co-hosting model. She talks about the lessons learned from her first two properties, the importance of having strong systems (especially cleaning teams), managing remotely, and building a business while working full-time. This is an inspiring and practical conversation for anyone looking to break into real estate, scale a hosting business, or overcome mindset barriers as an entrepreneur.
