At 19, I bought my first property using my college fund. The irony of Instead of going to college I decided to rent to college kids. To maximize returns, I implemented a hybrid rental strategy. During the college semesters, I rented the property to college students. When the students went on breaks, I listed the property on Airbnb to capitalize on higher short-term rental rates.
This flexible approach allowed me to keep the property occupied year-round while optimizing income during high-demand seasons. As a result, I achieved over a 30% ROI on my first property—well above traditional rental returns. This strategy laid the foundation for financial freedom and inspired me to grow my portfolio to help my family enjoy the same freedom. Since then I own, rented, and flipped multiple properties for a profit. Now it's your turn to do the same.
