I am an active real estate investor, published author, PhD, and professional Data Scientist. For the past 5 years, my husband and I have been investing in single/multi-family homes used as long-term rentals in St. Louis and Chicago. Two years ago, we teamed up with my brother-in-law and his wife to begin investing in and managing short-term rentals. In that time, we've used the BRRR strategy to flip two homes and we've converted 9 units for STR use.
