Is Airbnb Dead? Why This Investor is Doubling Down | Billy Perez E281

He started as a school teacher. Now he manages 35 Airbnb properties and runs a luxury vending machine business. In this episode, we sit down with Billy Perez to unpack his transformation from educator to entrepreneur, and the bold moves that helped him build financial freedom on his terms. Billy shares how he scaled his Airbnb business from 2 to 35 listings using nothing but word-of-mouth, why the short-term rental game is far from dead, and how he’s using social media and shameless marketing to stand out in a crowded space.   We also get into the power of networking, what it really takes to pivot and grow in business, and the importance of betting on yourself even when the path makes no sense to anyone else. If you're looking to break out of the 9-5 and build a flexible, profitable lifestyle business, this episode is your blueprint.
