Buying real estate has a funny way of making the future feel very real. You start thinking about mortgages, cash flow, tenants, and suddenly you realize, if something happened to me, would the people I love be okay? And this is something that hits pretty close to home for me. I've worked really hard to build a real estate investing portfolio, but... If something were to happen to me, I don't know that my family would be able to or would want to continue the portfolio that I have created. And that doesn't sit right because I want to make sure that my family is taken care of from a financial perspective, regardless of what happens to me. And I get that life insurance is one of those things that is easy to put off.

My family and I were recently planning our summer getaway. And as always, half the adventure started long before we left. We found ourselves mapping out flights, searching for great restaurants, picking activities, and imagining all the moments that make traveling so memorable. This particular trip took me to the East Coast for my 71-year-old dad's wedding. It wasn't your typical wedding weekend, but in many ways, it was even more meaningful. Brought together friends and family I hadn't seen in years, gave me the chance to spend some quality time with my nieces and nephews. Those shares meals, conversations, and unexpected moments are what make travel so special. But planning this trip got me thinking about something I hadn't really considered before, While we're away making memories, our home would just be sitting there empty. So what if we could make use of our space even while we're away? That's one reason Airbnb's co-host network caught my attention. If you've ever thought about listing your space on Airbnb while you're away but felt intimidated by everything involved with hosting, you can hire a local co-host to help. Co-hosts are experienced hosts who help create your listing, manage reservations, message guests, provide onsite support, and more. What I like is that it feels simple and practical. Instead of leaving your home unused while you're traveling, you have the opportunity to earn a little extra cash that could go towards your next vacation, home project, or whatever matters most to you. If you've been curious about hosting but weren't sure where to begin, a co-host can help make that easier. Find a co-host at airbnb.com slash host.

You know what changed the way I invest? Realizing that scaling rentals shouldn't mean creating more work for yourself. If you're trying to build that kind of system, Baseline is giving away $10,000 to help investors build rentals that run themselves. I own and manage dozens of properties. I travel a lot and I still work a W-2 job. And there was a point where I was checking multiple bank accounts, chasing rents and updating spreadsheets, just trying to stay organized. Even on vacation, I was constantly checking if rent came in. Now, everything runs through Baseline. It's BiggerPockets' official banking platform that automates my rental cash flow. Rents get deposited into dedicated property accounts, transactions get automatically categorized, and everything stays organized without me constantly managing it.
