Customer Reviews
Omaha
Luke I always enjoy your content. When will you be in omaha next so we can have you speak to our local REIA group?!
So helpful!
Luke’s podcast has been such a help with learning to self-manage our first short-term rental. The episode on increasing VRBO bookings is particularly great. It helped take us from 90% Airbnb to 50/50 between Airbnb and VRBO. Love the positivity.
The best in the business
