I’ve enjoyed hosting short-term rentals in the past and would love to share this home with others, as I’ve put a lot of effort into preserving it.

As such, one of the things I enjoy doing is doing deep due diligence on deals and sharing those deals that pass with everyone to make it easier to take that first step.

Enhancing the property can increase rental income and property value.Smaller Units: Consider investing in properties with smaller units, such as studios or one-bedroom apartments, which often have higher rental demand and lower per-unit costs.

We've been going to Edisto Beach or Harbor Island the last few years for a slower pace. we don't really get to be tourist when we are in Charleston we are working.. but we do enjoy the Restaurant scene and its a cool city.

My plan, after I accumulate enough property, is to refinance certain properties each year and collect the tax free "income" from that property and enjoy life.

I've really enjoyed the glue-down laminate planks my flooring company has.

Real Estate is a journey, so enjoy the ride
