If you have been following along lately, I am continuing to tell stories of my most fantastic Real Estate fails in celebration of Ken Corisini’s newly released book (Check out Chapter 17, it’s me!): “Profit Like The Pros”.

As I mentioned in my last post, while this book is all about our most profitable deals and biggest wins, I think there is a lot to learn from our failures as a community. I love to share mine widely, not only to keep my ego in check, but also to be transparent as a fellow investor and mentor in the field.

And now, for something different in Real Estate!

For as long as I’ve been in Real Estate, I've resisted becoming a Real Estate Agent.

My reasoning was:

I bought out of state (well... except 2014, 2019, 2020 -- this year I could have gotten a 13K reimbursement if I had been licensed.)
I didn't like the hours (oh, but Airbnb property management is just as on call, possibly worse)
So many people do Real Estate in a cheesy way and I didn't want to feel like one of the herd (ok that one is valid).

Reflections & Resources during this time of Quarantine

I know I haven’t written in awhile and I feel a responsibility to address these changing times, share resources and maybe some insights on the vacation rental business and this transition in life as we know it.

The ART of Being Human in Prison

I spent the last three days on a Prison vacation.

A group of 5 of us, working with Authentic Relating International, road tripped down to Pueblo, Colorado to facilitate a 2 day workshop at La Vista Women’s Correctional Facility. Our aim was to teach offenders how to more deeply connect with themselves and others to hopefully have greater ease with reentry or their time inside. It would be my first time volunteering in ARI’s Prison program and as the time drew near, I was sitting with a mix of fear, curiosity and excitement.

My takeaways from Burning Man, Including How to Make Everything Play.

I’m back from a week (or 9 days) in the dust! Although Burning Man has a reputation of being all parties and art, it is also a city with many different workshops, events, and volunteer opportunities to fill up your days. Burning Man can also be described as a third party or entity like a trickster house elf, creating magical circumstances and serendipity, while also destroying your plans and bringing up your inner struggles. Ah, what a wonderful place to work on ourselves!

The Power of Self Confidence

Yesterday when I was on a direct flight home from New York to Denver, I decided to watch a light chick flick called “I Feel Pretty”. Now, don’t rush out and add it to your watchlist, it's pretty basic, and yet when you are open for messages, sometimes you can get “ah ha” moments in the most unlikely of places.

Interview Series - What is all this talk about Cryptocurrency?

Today I have an exciting interview, with my new friend Shane Staats, a Crypto investor and consultant in Boulder, Colorado. A friend of mine who recently got into day trading Cryptocurrency, put us together and we spent a good 45mins geeking out in preparation for sharing with all of you. Whether you are interested in educating yourself to invest on your own, or paying for a more hands off approach, we’ve got something for you. Read ahead!

I'm just moseying (words on pacing & defining your own success)

How do you define success? For me, all I’ve ever wanted was enough money to cover my expenses so I could live in a comfy home, drive a well-oiled machine, travel, and occasionally eat out without stressing about the price. For all intents and purposes, I’ve reached this platform so why reach higher? Sure one can always upgrade their homes, cars, experiences, and meals but is it really that much sweeter?
