I've been considering investing in real estate, but I'm not really motivated enough or interested enough to move forward. My wife and I put some money in a fund of funds, but with all of the fees, there's not much money being made. Actually, I don't think there's any yet. My wife and I were recently at a vacation destination driving distance from our home and got to thinking… could we get a vacation home here? I got to thinking… could we make money from a vacation home here? I started reading books (listening to books) and listening to podcasts and so I decided to have the queen of short-term rentals on the show to answer our questions. Isn't it more fun to look at vacation homes than apartment buildings? Avery Carl was named one of Wall Street Journal's Top 100 and Newsweek's Top 500 agents in 2020.
