How to Start Earning Income Through Real Estate & Airbnb in Raleigh — Without Buying Property

You’ve built a successful career — but is your income working as hard as you are?

If you’ve been curious about real estate investing but feel stuck because you don’t own property (or don’t want to buy right now), this is the event for you.

Join us for an in-person educational session at The Davie, where Jake Mercer, a local investor and founder of One Jozzby, will walk you through practical ways to start earning income through short-term rental investing — even if you’re starting from scratch.

Jake began with Airbnb rental arbitrage — renting properties and re-renting them legally with landlord approval — and has since grown to managing 22+ properties across Raleigh-Durham. He now works with a mix of owned, leased, and managed units and continues to build a growing portfolio in one of the fastest-growing regions in the Southeast.

This workshop is built for high-income professionals in Raleigh (especially in tech, healthcare, and other demanding careers) who want to explore smart, actionable ways to build long-term wealth and cash flow — without the fluff, pressure, or hype.

• How short-term rental investing works (even without owning property)
• How Jake built and scaled his portfolio from one arbitrage deal
• What makes Raleigh an ideal market for Airbnb and short-term rentals
• How to evaluate a property or sublease opportunity for cash flow
• What tools, systems, and partners make it sustainable long term
• How to take action in the next 30–60 days with low risk

• Tech, medical, and business professionals earning strong income
• First-time or aspiring real estate investors
• People looking to create an additional stream of income
• Anyone who wants to build financial freedom without quitting their job
