Think you need to be rich to own rental property? Think again.
In this episode of Reset & Reclaim, I share the real story of how I bought my first rental home with less than 5% down—and why it was one of the smartest financial moves I’ve ever made. You’ll learn how buying as an owner-occupant helped me qualify for a lower interest rate, what numbers to run before choosing a home, and how I turned my primary residence into a cash-flowing rental without burning out.
We’ll also talk about what it’s really like to take care of a home (yes, I unclogged a sink and changed out a faucet with the help of YouTube!)—plus the tools that made renting it out way easier than I imagined, like Avail.co.
Whether you're dreaming of your first home or looking for a smarter path to financial freedom, this episode is packed with insight, encouragement, and steps you can actually take.
