    Hey everyone! Welcome back to another episode of the Vacation Rental Revolution Podcast. This week I had the opportunity to interview business owner and investor, Gered De Hoogh. We discussed Gered's transition from investing in long term rentals to selling his portfolio and switching to short term rentals. We also chatted about the challenges of launching a property in a remote area & finished up discussing the importance of have very clear property goals as you make decisions about your portfolio.
    I hope that you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. I believe there is so much to learn from every journey and this one is no different.

The STR roadmap. Have to listen if you are going to open up your short-term rental portfolio. Incredible - 5 Stars!

Authentic and Practical View of Vacation Rentals

I started listening to Shawn’s podcast a few months ago and the content has helped me jump the learning curve of the short-term rental business. What drew me is Shawn’s authentic and practical views that will really teach the right way to approach this asset class.

Episode #150

One takeaway that I had from this episode was the excuse of not having enough time is not valid. The real reason is that it just isn’t a priority. Loved that concept.
