TBT: Ask Marco - Long or Short-Term Rental?
Click Here for the Show Notes
Today’s episode dives into a question many new investors wrestle with: Should you buy a long-term rental or take a swing at a short-term vacation rental? Sandy, who’s currently working with my team, reached out for guidance as she and her partner prepare to purchase their first investment property in Florida. While long-term rentals offer predictability and stability, short-term rentals can deliver eye-popping cashflow—sometimes two, three, even four times more. But as we explore in this conversation, those higher returns come with trade-offs: unpredictable occupancy, increased expenses, constant turnover, potential regulatory headaches, and more hands-on management. I break down the pros, cons, risks, and realities of short-term rentals, contrast them with tried-and-true long-term strategies, and share why I personally stay on the long-term side of the fence. If you’re weighing your options or considering stepping into the vacation-rental world, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

The Hidden 1031 Strategy: How to Buy a Duplex at a Discount and Grow Your Portfolio Fast
Click Here for the Show Notes
Ready to turn a simple 1031 exchange into a wealth-building machine? In this episode, Melissa and seasoned investor-builder Josh unveil a powerful new twist on the traditional 1031—what they’re calling the “Poor Man’s Improvement” (aka the strategy that can create six figures of instant equity while deferring taxes).
Josh breaks down how his team helps investors sell a property, roll their gains into a brand-new construction build at builder cost, and walk away with forced equity, stronger cash flow potential, and the option to rinse and repeat to scale faster than ever. Plus, we dig into Florida’s steady-growth market, the perks of duplex investing, and why creative strategies—not just cash on hand—separate slow-growth investors from exponential ones.
Thinking about a 1031 exchange—or want to plan ahead for your next move?
👉 Contact us for a strategy session and get introduced to Josh’s team, the 1031 exchange pros, and the lenders who make this process seamless.
Don’t leave equity—or opportunity—on the table. Let’s map out your next investment move together.
