Real Estate Rookie - A podcast by BiggerPockets

Airbnb arbitrage is a real estate investing strategy that provides a low-cost, low-risk entry point for new investors. While you don’t get the appreciation or tax benefits of property ownership, arbitrage can deliver cash flow in spades! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Like many investors, Keron Bryce started house hacking to help cover his mortgage. Once he discovered the potential of short-term rentals, however, he converted his unit into an Airbnb and doubled his cash flow right off the bat. But Keron still aspired to grow his business. So, without a ton of money for down payments, he decided to try his hand at arbitrage—a strategy that helped him rake in $140,000 of pure profit last year and allowed his wife to leave her nine-to-five! Need an easy alternative to owning rentals? Arbitrage is not only a great way to test the waters before buying properties, but it’s also a profitable strategy in its own right! In this episode, you’ll learn about the pros and cons of arbitrage, the systems and processes you’ll need to automate your business, and the best way to find new units!
