Ever wonder what it really takes to pack up your life, move to a new city, and build a short-term rental business from scratch?
In this episode, We sat down with my friend Chachi Horgan — a former real estate agent from Maine who took a leap, moved to Florida, and built Roam Ready Vacation Rentals, scaling to 11 properties in less than two years.
We talk about everything — the mindset it took to start over, the power of building a solid network, what it’s like navigating a new market, and why learning to delegate is absolutely critical if you want to grow. Chachi also shares how coaching lacrosse and a love of personal development shaped how he runs his business today.
If you're thinking about starting a vacation rental business — or scaling the one you already have — this one's loaded with real stories, raw insights, and some seriously motivating perspective.
