Today I am interviewing Leon Buie, a seasoned real estate investor with twenty-one plus years of experience in the game. Leon started his career as an entrepreneur and owned and operated several businesses before investing in a real estate opportunity in 2000. It wasn’t long before he was managing 23 properties, single family and multifamily, and had flipped 50 plus properties. After the market crash in 2008, Leon pivoted to focus on multifamily investments and began hosting short term rentals through Airbnb in Philadelphia and Delaware. Tune in as we talk about the ins and outs of rental property management and Leon offers up invaluable information about getting started as an Airbnb Host.
