The power of build-to-rent Airbnb for building wealth

[Julio Ochoa]

Hello everyone! I'd like to discuss with you the strategy of newly built fourplexes for Airbnb purposes. 

Using Airbnb in the right area can 2x-3x the income of that rental property.

To make Airbnb work, your property should be in a populated/traveled area. For development you will be finding land in such areas. 

A few of these properties can retire a whole family, and this is where my passion lies for real estate. 

The strategy is to 

Buy land -> Build Housing -> Rent it out on Airbnb -> Refinance the property -> Repeat/Reinvest

This means you are

- Avoiding expensive & strict commercial codes (5+ units)

- Buying land in an area where your product is highly demanded

- Adding tremendous value to the property by turning it from dirt to brand new housing

- 2x-3xing the income of the property by using a short-term & vacation rental model such as Airbnb

- Refinancing so that your capital is not stuck in a property, allowing it to be reinvested & grow faster

- Building wealth and passive income for yourself and/or others 

If you have any questions or would like to discuss, leave a reply or send me a message 

Thanks for reading!

Exactly what @Leslie Anne Morris said. I would be interested in reading how many times you have done it and the numbers.

Personally I am a bit dubious about 4 plex vacation rentals or STR in general. You kind of get the worst of both worlds. A condo experience without the amenities nor do you get the privacy of a SFH.

Not saying it wouldn't work, but I would like to see some actual numbers.
