I own five short-term rentals. And I'm selling some of them.

Not because they failed me. Because I finally ran the numbers honestly

In this episode, I walk you through a real client comparison β€” his Little Rock long-term rental at 15% cash on cash vs. his Airbnb that looked like a win at $1,200/month but told a different story once we added a property manager, 50% realistic occupancy, utilities, and wear and tear.

By the end, he saw the truth. Now you will too.
