From $0 to $7,200/month in 4 months

Written feedback from students and coaching clients
"The STR Accelerator Course paid for itself in the first month. Tara's furnishing checklist alone saved me $3,000+ compared to what I was planning to spend. The automation guides are gold—I'm managing my property in less than 1 hour per week."

"I was skeptical about online courses, but Tara's approach is so practical and data-driven. She shows you the real numbers—good and bad—and gives you the exact tools and templates she uses. No fluff, just actionable content."
Jessica W.
St. Cloud, MN • Course Student
"The 1-on-1 coaching was worth every penny. Tara analyzed my specific property, helped me avoid a $15K mistake (HOA had hidden STR restrictions), and guided me to a better property that's now making $5,800/month. ROI on coaching: 10x in year one."
Brian H.
Clearwater, FL • Coaching Client
"Best real estate education I've ever received—and I've taken a lot of courses. Tara teaches from actual experience, not theory. She owns properties, manages them herself, and shares the real numbers. That authenticity is rare and valuable."
