AIE 135: Real Estate: Short-Term Rental Arbitrage with Sarah Glidewell

This week, Lauren interviews Sarah Glidewell about short-term rental arbitrage. Sarah went from $20k in student debt to saving $20k to invest in real estate on only a $50k salary. She dove into rental arbitrage JUST before the COVID-19 pandemic and still was able to thrive. According to Sarah, she “experienced failure so fast” and the stock market just isn’t creative enough for her. Who wants to stare and red and green lines all day? She gives some great tips on how to handle rejection, how to communicate to landlords, and what NOT to do when starting out on Airbnb. Her biggest advice is to take the leap now, and you’ll be motivated to do just that after listening to this episode.

About Sarah:

Sarah Glidewell started STR arbitrage in October of 2019. She went from 1 to 4 units in March of 2020, the week the pandemic hit - and her properties were in downtown Dallas, where travel came to a screeching halt. Even with an extremely bumpy start, she’s since continued refining her arbitrage portfolio, built a design business with her best friend, joined a startup called SuperhostLabs, and has entered the ownership game.
