Her Rent Was $3! Building a Real Estate Portfolio in New York | Monica Soyemi

New York's singing agent and I sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about building a portfolio in New York, the tradeoffs of working with tenants in government assistance programs, and how to buy a house in New York if you're not a bajillionaire. We also discuss the mindset of saving, and how Monica travels around the world as a professional singer while also working in real estate.
