What's Included? 

14 lessons, from the first look at a property to a full 12-year model, including the working Profit Planner I use for my own four homes. Every single person with a rental property should be using a long-term financial model. The free calculator gives you a glimpse of twelve years in a few seconds. This class teaches you how to do it for real, on a real property, with practical tools that keep it simple.

The Profit Planner

A full financial model built specifically for short-term rentals. Learn how to analyze deals, forecast cash flow, and plan for long-term wealth using Sandy’s Profit Planner tool. Look at your investments over a 12 year period and see everything in one place. Excel now, web-based version coming soon! 

Step-by-Step Lessons

14 lessons take you from a quick first look at a property, to testing the detailed numbers before you buy, to a full 12-year model. Then tracking your expenses, what to expect in years 1, 3 and 5, and when to hold, refinance or sell.

Real Numbers, Real Properties

The same tools Sandy uses to run the numbers on her own four homes in four states. Practical and simple, so you keep using them long after the class, whether you manage your property yourself or hire a property manager.

Meet Sandy Lee

Sandy Lee spent more than 30 years in engineering and construction, ending as SVP of Services and running a private equity division, before buying her first short-term rental at 52. Three more followed within two years, and she retired at 55. She now runs four properties across four states herself, in a few hours a week, as Distilled Destinations, with more than 350 guest reviews at 99% five-star and revenue growing 15 to 20% a year. She has been a guest on the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast and BiggerPockets Real Estate Rookie, teaches new investors through STR JumpStart, and is the author of Building Joy: A Better Way to Build Wealth Through Short-Term Rentals.

5 Stars! From finding properties, crunching the numbers and purchasing to actually owning, operating and - most of all - profiting from STRs is all here inside her courses and consultations. She makes everything so easy to understand but also easy to implement from start to finish.

Finally Long-Term Projections! I especially appreciate being able to see long-term projections, which is providing me a much better understanding of the potential performance of an investment. STR JumpStart has such valuable tools for evaluating different scenarios and understanding the financial implications.

Blown Away! STR JumpStart is amazing! As the old Chinese proverb says "to know the road ahead, ask those coming back" - and as both a Realtor and STR owner, I was blown away by Sandy's knowledge regarding "the road ahead" when it comes to all things STR.
