Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. Today I’m joined by Lizbeth Scordo, a journalist turned real estate agent and investor who has built a thriving portfolio in Palm Springs. We dive into her journey from buying a short sale during the Great Recession to transforming a mid-century fixer into a high-demand vacation rental. Lizbeth shares the lessons she learned from her early break-even deal, why passion for a place can be a real advantage, and how she turned risk into reward by knowing her market inside and out. This conversation is packed with insights for anyone looking to de-risk their investments and create real cash flow through real estate.
