About this episode
Do you dream of financial freedom, but aren’t sure how to reach it? Ashlee Perry was in a similar boat, but in just one year of real estate investing, she has been able to turn her home into a money-making machine and buy a rental property with low money down—bringing her one step closer to her ultimate goal!
Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Ashlee had always wanted to reach financial freedom, but it wasn’t until she discovered real estate that she saw a clear roadmap for achieving it. To test the waters, Ashlee listed her primary residence on Airbnb and stayed with her parents and friends while it was booked out—a move that made almost $25,000 in year one. She has since bought her first investment property—a duplex she currently house hacks—and converted her previous home into a long-term rental!
In this episode, Ashlee shares the strategies she used to create a five-figure income stream using only her primary residence and how she’s building a real estate portfolio with low-money-down investment properties. She also offers several helpful tips for rookie landlords, like best practices when inheriting tenants!
