Your STR business is worth more than you think—if you build it the right way.
In this episode, we break down the difference between operators who burn out… and operators who build real companies that survive, scale, and eventually sell for life-changing money.
We also cover the hard lessons from companies that grew too fast, collapsed, or went bankrupt—and how to avoid their mistakes.
In this episode you’ll learn:
• Why your STR business already has real enterprise value
• What happens if everything lives in your head (and how to fix it)
• The operational mistakes that bankrupted a fast-growing STR company
• How to build systems that survive without you
• What buyers REALLY look for in an STR business
• The path to a 7–8 figure STR exit
