If you're looking for a way to boost cashflow through real estate, the co-living strategy might be the game-changer you’ve been searching for. In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke talks with Miller McSwain, a former rocket scientist who left his W-2 job to become a full-time real estate investor by building a cashflow machine with co-living properties.

Miller shares how he discovered co-living, why it stood out as a high-income model, and how he successfully scaled this strategy to replace his traditional income. You'll hear how co-living compares to standard rentals, what it takes to manage furnished rooms and individual leases, and how to identify the right markets where this approach thrives. Miller also dives into tenant privacy, tenant management, and how to create a living experience that attracts long-term renters.
