The Real Payoff of DIY Landlording - Every Hour Becomes the Next House
Description
Myka and Steve open with the real cost of DIY landlording - every hour on your knees fixing a toilet compounds into equity for the next house, while friends who clock out and watch TV stay flat. They stumble into arbitrage gold: buy rental property in Argentina at a 42-to-1 exchange rate, furnish it yourself like a Canadian Instagram star who monetises her reno videos, collect rent in US dollars, and your $100-a-night Airbnb in Buenos Aires suddenly cash-flows like a North American asset at Third World overhead.
The episode ranges across coffee addiction at 30, the make-me-move seller vs the motivated one, Grant Cardone keeping half the syndication profit for finding the deal, the 1031 exchange vs taking your chips off the table, whether to Ramsey-snowball $86,000 in eight months or buy a house a month instead, refinancing out of student loans on retirement, the $65,000 buyout that could fund a Southwest double-dip, and why digital nomads in Mexico earning dollars live like kings. They close planning interviews with a Buenos Aires local, a Barcelona expat, and past guests who've lived the overseas arbitrage life.
