Well, I think we're about ready to get into this episode's money question segment where I take over and ask a bunch of questions about my new life as a landlord. But before we get into that, let's take a moment to pause. Listener, take a second and ask yourself where you need some nerdy guidance with your money.

And one of our goals this year on Smart Money is to talk with more of you live on the podcast to help you with your money questions. So if you want to hang out with Elizabeth and me for a bit and get some nerdy wisdom, let us know. One more time, leave us a voicemail or text us on the Nerd Hotline at 901-730-6373. That's 901-730-NERD.

We are back and answering your money questions to help you make smarter financial decisions. And this episode's question comes from me. Regular listeners of the pod may remember that a few weeks back, I had a question about selling my house. Well, I have decided to go in a different direction and rent out my place instead.

And I have some questions about the best way to manage a rental long-term and whether it's the easy passive income dream that people on social media make it out to be.

Thank you. Yeah, we've had you on to talk about managing rental properties before, but I've never had so many questions of my own. So I'm excited to really dig in. I want to start by hearing a little bit about your story. So how did you get into this and how many properties do you manage?

A couple dozen. I love that.

Your line around wishing that you'd had properties you'd sold back shortly after selling them really stuck in my mind as I was considering earlier this year what to do with my property. Because I've had my house, which I bought in the pandemic. It's in a small coastal town in Washington, about three hours from Portland, where my partner and I spend a lot of our time.

I've had it for a number of years now. And I really enjoyed my time there, but it was just a little too far away to manage on an day to day basis easily. And my life has been pulling me more toward Portland and I've been wanting to travel more and it's not easy to travel from a small coastal town in Washington. So that's why I was thinking of selling it.
