Meet Sief Khafagi, Co-Founder of Techvestor — one of the hottest new services that allows folks to passively invest in short-term rentals.

Sief has spent his entire career working in tech, and helped scale one of Facebook’s largest engineering organizations from a couple hundred to thousands across the world.

It was during his time at Facebook where he met his now Co-Founder Sabrina who owned a couple of Airbnbs.  Sief was shocked by how successful her short-term rentals were that he asked Sabrina if he could just give her money to go buy and operate his own STRs.

And, while he couldn’t have known it at the time, this ask would be the seed of the idea which would ultimately blossom into Techvestor. Today, Techvestor owns and operates nearly 100 short-term rentals in some of the country’s most desirable vacation markets. 

Tune in to hear:

- the story of how Sief helped build Techvestor

- why Techvestor is bullish on single-family homes

- what their secret sauce to sourcing, designing, and launching STRs looks like

- the opportunities he sees to build new tech and new businesses in the space, and his hot takes on the future of travel and hospitality.
