The Side Hustle Show
What if you could create $1,000 to $2,000 per month in cash flow from a single property and need just three homes to replace your W-2 income?
Sam Wegert discovered this path 14 years ago when he started house hacking a single property.
Today, he owns over 200 rooms across his co-living portfolio, all passively managed while he lives overseas.
Co-living is when you buy a larger house and rent out individual rooms instead of the entire property.
It’s the difference between earning $250 a month from a traditional single-family rental and $1,000 to $2,000 from the same-sized property set up for co-living.
From the Scale Your Co-Living Real Estate podcast and ScaleYourRealEstate.com, Sam Wegert shares how he turned a simple house hack into a six-figure business addressing affordable housing from the ground up.
