Darius Kellar went from making ten dollars an hour as a janitor to a real estate investor with over $1,000,000 in rental properties in less than a decade. By taking advantage of property auctions and investing in areas that most real estate investors wouldn’t even consider, Darius has built a real estate portfolio that will soon bring in six figures in rent every year, most of which he’ll get to keep. How he did it was a lot simpler than you’d expect. Before real estate, Darius had $100,000 in s...

Earlier this year, many Airbnb hosts expected the short-term rental market to fall off a cliff. With the threat of an economic recession, travel spending was supposed to crater, and with it, a slew of Airbnb failures. But that never happened. While demand did drop, supply increased, and daily rate growth eventually fell flat, there was no “Airbnbust” that so many doomsayers predicted. But, with another recession risk looking more real, are hosts still safe? We brought AirDNA’s Jamie Lane back to...

“Should I sell my rental property in 2023?” If you own investment property, you’ve probably asked yourself this numerous times over the past ten months.

Off-market real estate deals can make you a millionaire in just a few YEARS.

He went from a burnt-out nine-to-five worker to financial freedom in just two years by following this strategy, and you can do it, too! David was working all day a...

Want a PRACTICAL guide to making six figures in real estate? What about a way to do it in a year or less? That’s precisely what Keith Everett did, trading his sixteen-dollar-an-hour factory job for the potential to make six figures by himself, wholesaling real estate.

Soli Cayetano makes over $10K per month in passive income at age twenty-five by buying the rental properties that most investors actively avoid. These properties are often in overlooked markets that aren’t as attractive as San Diego, Miami, Austin, or Seattle, but they make her as much, if not more, money. The houses Soli buys are often $100K or less, meaning almost any investor reading this could come close to buying one. In three years, Soli turned $50K into a $5M real estate portfolio, enough...
