Episode 52: Real Estate Investments: Expanding Beyond Traditional Rentals
Investing in real estate goes far beyond just buying rental houses. In this follow-up to last week's episode, Katy and Alissa explore a wide range of real estate investment opportunities—from vacation rentals and land flipping to house hacking and long-term flips.
Alyssa breaks down her recent purchase of a short-term rental cabin in Tennessee, including how she self-manages it from afar and why it outperforms other properties. Katy shares "flipping without flipping" stories, including multiple real clients who bought fixer-uppers, renovated them while living in the homes, and doubled their equity.
