What does Dylan Eckardt love about his work?

Advertisement Narrator 0:00
One of the things I really love about my work is the fact that I can do it from anywhere. Getting a change of scenery can really help inspire creativity in my work and has once or twice or maybe more cured my writer's block. Being away for work, for fun, or for both is a perfect opportunity to host your space on Airbnb.

How can hosting on Airbnb be beneficial?

That way, not only do you get to experience a new part of the world, but you're also making money while you're doing it. And if you think hosting is overwhelming, I have a solve for you. With Airbnb's co-host network, it is easier than ever before to host. Now you can hire a high-quality local co-host to take care of your home and your guests. They can do everything from creating your listing to managing reservations to messaging guests and providing on-site support. They can even help with design and styling. Also, by hosting on Airbnb, you can become part of another family's story, maybe even their hero. As you know, I stayed in an Airbnb for months when my house burned down, and I truly do not know what I would have done otherwise.

I'm Nicole Lappin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand. It's time for some money rehab. The best business tool out there isn't productivity software, your corporate card, or even your phone. It is confidence. And Dylan Eckhart has that in spades. Dylan is a real estate agent, one of the cast members of HBO Max's Selling the Hamptons, and the self-proclaimed Prince of Montauk. He grew up in Montauk, and so the Hamptons has become his real estate area of expertise. But he also works in LA, and honestly, you get the impression that he has properties everywhere.

What is Dylan's background in real estate?

Today, we talk about where he gets his confidence, and I get his take on some controversial stories in the real estate world, from Jeff Bezos to Diddy, Mariah Carey, and everyone in between. When he tells the stories, I can't honestly tell if he's bluffing, so I take everything he says with a grain of salt. But I hope the Mariah Carey story is true, because honestly, I fell in love with her a little bit more after this. For all the celebrity real estate tea, here's Dylan. Dylan Eckhart, welcome to Money Rehab.

Have you ever needed money rehab?

What unique stories does Dylan have about celebrity clients?

Dylan Eckardt 2:59
Definitely not good with money. Why do you say that? Someone said to me a long time ago, Dylan, you've got an addiction, a bad addiction of spending money, but you have a better addiction of making money. So at the same time, it keeps me moving. I've always wanted the best. I grew up in Montauk. Montauk was a small fishing town with a drinking problem. Before, as they said, I sold it out. But it was a small town with a drinking problem, the Hamptons. Now it's a small drinking town with a yuppie problem. And the yuppies, I don't know if you guys use that word on the West Coast, but yuppies is like young, urban, rich. But we had learned to adapt. When you grew up in a town like I grew up in the Hamptons, 12 months a year, it's a cool Memorial Day to Labor Day. Don't get me wrong.
Dylan Eckardt 3:38
But come Labor Day, day after Labor Day, we call it Tumbleweed Tuesday because the last day is Monday and Tumbleweed Tuesday means Tuesday. back to normal. My graduating class was eight kids. My graduating high school class was 36 kids. Now it's turned into a year-round residence.
