#252: From Corporate to Real Estate: A Journey of Transformation with Liz Bono

In this episode of REIA Radio, we sit down with Liz Buonincontri—known to many as Liz Bono—to hear her incredible journey from the corporate world to real estate freedom. Liz shares how she left a Big Four consulting career to build a portfolio of rentals, short-term rentals, and boutique hotels—all while raising a young family.

She opens up about the challenges of her first deals, including literally falling through a subfloor on her very first BRRRR property, and how she and her husband navigated risk, financing, and scaling into commercial assets. Liz also talks about balancing motherhood with entrepreneurship, the value of diversification, and why creating unique experiences for tenants and guests has been her secret weapon.

If you’re looking for inspiration to take the leap into real estate—or motivation to keep scaling your portfolio—this episode is for you.
