W2 Retired and Traveling the World with Just 15 Units w/Sarah Weaver

Description

Long-distance investing may sound like an impossible feat to achieve for many investors. What if something goes wrong in the house? What if something needs fixing? What if there are problems with tenants? As today’s guest Sarah Weaver puts it, “do nothing”, your core four can handle it all so you don’t have to stress.

Sarah knows what she’s talking about—she’s been a nomadic landlord for years now, teaching agents and investors how to grow their businesses while living their dream life. Sarah was able to close on twelve units while operating abroad and working remotely. She was buying fourplexes while hiking in New Zealand, landlording while on the beaches of Bali, and growing her businesses while enjoying everything South America had to offer.

Sarah embodies the exact type of life so many investors are looking for. The difference between most investors and Sarah? She let go of fear and kept her goals in mind, no matter what she was doing. This way, she’s been able to retire off of fifteen rental properties in less than a decade while running her own business, traveling, and really doing whatever she wants!
