On this week's episode, Avery is joined by Jane Ng, a Bay Area-based investor who pivoted into real estate after her daughter's health challenges made traditional work unsustainable. Jane shares how she grew her portfolio to include long-term rentals in Arkansas, four profitable short-term rentals in California, and ten co-hosted properties—all while raising three kids. She dives into her strategy for selecting overlooked markets, leveraging conventional financing, and using short-term rentals to unlock time freedom for parents. Her story is a powerful reminder of how real estate can transform lives beyond just finances.
