Mid-term Rentals, Branding, and Hospitality: A Conversation with Vivian Yip

In this episode, Host Shona Lepis chats with Vivan Yip, a real estate investor in Austin, Texas, shares her journey from starting in real estate at the age of 24 through house hacking, to flipping properties, and finally focusing on the midterm rental space. Vivian reveals how the unexpected health scare of losing her hair to Alopecia universalis influenced her focus on real estate and drove her towards creating a fulfilling business.  The conversation dives into details about Vivian's innovative platform, 'Corporate Rentals USA', which aims to provide a premium hospitality experience for guests and offer collaboration opportunities for hosts.  She highlights the importance of branding in making your property stand out in a saturated market, and offers tips on styling, important amenities, and the useful tools she employs such as OwnerRes and PriceLabs. Beyond this, Vivian also imparts advice on pricing and aspects to consider while buying a property for midterm rentals.  Lastly, she stresses the importance of networking with insurance companies and adjusters to attract more corporate placements.   Connect with: Vivian Yip https://vivianyip.com/ https://corporaterentalsusa.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/mtrwealth   Show Sponsor: She’s Got Assets™ We offer two courses.
