Course Description
Real estate investing recently became even more profitable thanks to the growth of vacation rentals such as on Airbnb!
I started investing in real estate when I was 26, I own four units and I occasionally work with other real estate investors to consult them on their deals all along the way. In this course I will tell you exactly how I do this work so you can do it for your own project. When it comes to short-term rentals, a lot depends on the country where you live, especially concerning laws and regulations. But regardless of local specificities, there are usually many possibilities to invest in real estate. In this course I will explain you how to choose the best short-term rental unit based on dozens of criteria that I use myself and how to calculate your profitability. You will get access to several Excel files that I use when consulting real estate investors who want to do short-term rentals.
Please be aware that investing in real estate is not a get-rich-quick scheme, it's a serious job which takes time and creates real value. However, this course is not investment advice and you must always make your own decisions. Here I only describe the methods that worked for me.
