To diversify my real estate income, I've focused on expanding into various property types, including residential, commercial, and industrial properties. This approach allows me to spread risk across different market segments. Additionally, I've invested in real estate investment trusts (REITs) to gain exposure to a broader range of properties and markets without the burden of direct property management. I've also sought to diversify geographically by investing in properties located in different regions. This strategy helps mitigate the impact of localized economic fluctuations and provides a more balanced portfolio. By combining these approaches, I've been able to build a more resilient and profitable real estate investment portfolio.

I started a Youtube channel where I tour listings, and after 6 months I monetized it. In order to do this you really have to find spectacular properties or do things in a different way... if you are just touring the same property that everyone else is in your market, there won't be as much interest on Youtube. But you should be able to generate $3-$4 per thousand views on Youtube once monetized, not to mention the additional clients that can come from it.

So many ideas! Setting up social channels that have reach and can be monetized is one. I, for instance, have built a following on FB that brings in money each month from my posts, and that's without any sponsorships or branded posts. It takes time, but is nice because its very passive for doing what I already am doing, posting. Of course, a solid youtube channel can create income and build your brand, too, but again takes time and planning and some investment to have decent videos. Investing in a title company, mortgage company or other services (insurance, inspections, etc) can also create passive income, just be sure you disclose! Having a downline of agents also can work, owning a brokerage, and of course being an investor/landlord!

To diversify your real estate income, think about mixing different property types—residential, commercial, and even industrial properties—to reduce risk exposure. Another smart move is investing in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), allowing you to earn from multiple markets without the headache of managing properties yourself. Expanding to various locations is also key—investing in different cities or regions can protect you from local market downturns.
