Welcome to Behind the Stays — a podcast that shares the stories behind your favorite boutique hotels, short-term rentals, and hospitality brands and the hosts, operators, and entrepreneurs who’ve brought them to life. Every Tuesday and Friday you’ll meet the military veterans, retired flight attendants, tech entrepreneurs, school teachers, single moms, hoteliers, and real estate investors who are all, in their unique ways, shaping the future of travel and hospitality.

Meet Bella Linchenko, a muralist, STR investor, and creative finance community builder.
Growing up, Bella wanted to be a dog groomer…or an olympic gymnast…or both.
And while neither of those dreams panned out, she does get to apply her love of art, form, and problem solving to the work she gets to do each day.
In this conversation Bella and I discuss:
How murals can elevate the value of your STR
Why Bella started a creative financing community for women real estate investors
What she’s learned from house hacking
How she’s underwriting deals today
and so much more
Alright friends, without further ado, get ready to meet Bella.
