“Negative” cash flow can help you reach financial freedom up to FIVE TIMES faster, so why are most investors ignoring low-to-no cash flow deals?

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...
