About this listen

What if your best-performing Airbnb was sitting just a mile away—and you almost missed it? In this episode, we talk with Jeremy Beland, a real estate investor who made the leap from wholesaling to building a killer short-term rental portfolio in Port St. Lucie, Florida. He shares how one overlooked pocket became home to his top-performing property—and why hyper-local strategy matters more than most people realize. Jeremy and his wife pull back the curtain on what it really takes to succeed in the Airbnb space. From rehabbing a rundown house to creating a five-star guest experience, they walk through the messy, unglamorous, and essential parts of running short-term rentals like a real business. Whether you’re already hosting or just thinking about it, this one’s packed with real-world advice, hard-earned lessons, and a few laughs along the way. Things we discussed in this episode: Jeremy’s shift from off-market deals to short-term rentals Why location—down to a one-mile radius—matters The real challenges of furnishing from scratch Building a strong local cleaning and maintenance team Treating STRs like a business, not a side hustle Smart guest screening to protect your property How reviews impact long-term success Jeremy’s REI Freedom program on off-market strategies Long-term wealth potential of STR investments The hospitality mindset behind a top-tier Airbnb Get in touch with Jeremy: Linkedin - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremy-beland-164b8913/ Facebook - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/795700988329071/media Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jeremybeland_/ #SmartStayShow #realestate #realestateinvestor #realestateagent #RealEstateInvesting #AirbnbInvestment #RealEstateSuccess #PropertyInvesting #STRStrategy #OffMarketDeals #AirbnbTips #RealEstateCoaching #PassiveIncome #PropertyManagement Follow Us!
