“After completing the SSHA mentorship, we increased our NET income by 192%."

"After completing the SSHA mentorship, we gained the confidence to take over management of our property, allowing us to immediately save 25-30% on management fees.

But beyond that, we were able to increase our average nightly rate from $298 to $459 over the exact same time period - a 54% increase!

We were also able to increase our NET income over the same time period by 192%.

We are only a few months into implementing the systems we learned, but we're excited to see our ROI continue to grow and are looking forward to analyzing our year-end numbers!"

“Since graduating, I’ve confidently scaled from one STR to three.”

“Joining Hanan’s mentorship in late 2023 was a game-changer. I initially enrolled to gain confidence in my next short-term rental. purchase, but I walked away with so much more.

The program helped me optimize the revenue of my existing STR, re-evaluate the low ROI of my long-term rental, and completely shift my investment strategy.

Since graduating, I’ve confidently scaled from one STR to three and built a supportive community of friends and mentors who continue to inspire and uplift me.”

“We are now on track to double our revenue this year thanks to the skills we learned through the mentorship."

"We dove headfirst into the STR business with a big dream, but not much of a concrete plan. Although we sort of "lucked out" and things were going ok, I knew I needed to learn more. The books, podcasts and endless articles were not resonating with me.


I took a chance on Hanan & Janel by setting up an initial meeting, after which I knew it was a perfect fit. Hanan, with the years of experience coupled with Janel's experience and perspective made them the perfect pair to provide us with the tools to be successful.

The investment we made in this mentorship is invaluable. I think my favorite non-tangible part was the excitement, confidence and genuine want from Hanan & Janel for their mentees to succeed.

Too much in this life is gatekeeping and fear of competition. Their openness and willingness to provide the best information filled me with so much hope and excitement for the future.

We are now on track to double our revenue this year thanks to the skills I learned through the mentorship."

“What we wrote down as our goals in week 1, we have achieved them all.”

“We were very impressed by the whole program, and we feel that we got tremendous value from Janel & Hanan. They are extremely professional and their partnership is perfect, Hanan brings so much knowledge and expertise and Janel brings so much energy.


We thought a few of the modules would be useful, but we have learned every single week all along the way and have gotten tremendous value from each module.

We didn't know we were capable of a second short term rental property right now until we joined the program. We used the loan officer we met in the mentorship to help us get creative financing and get under contract on our second short term rental property, when other lenders were telling us no. Without the mentorship we couldn't be as confident as we are in scaling and retiring Stacy from her W2.

What we wrote down as our goals in week 1, we have achieved them all. We know we will continue to be successful because of the experience we had in the mentorship, and we are so very thankful.”

“Having no idea where to even start in the STR space, I learned so much and feel confident in buying my first property."

“Enrolling in Hanan’s mentorship was a game-changer for me.”

“ Having admired Hanan's growth and success in Tahoe and beyond for years, I knew learning directly from her was an opportunity I couldn’t miss. What I didn’t expect was the invaluable sense of community and support I found within the mentorship group. Surrounding myself with like-minded individuals who share my passion for short term rentals has been instrumental in my journey to scale my portfolio.

Hanan’s guidance not only provided me with invaluable insights for my next investment but also sparked new ideas to enhance the performance of my current STR, significantly improving cash flow!

Beyond the tangible benefits, I’ve formed genuine friendships and found a network of individuals who are genuinely invested in my success. I’m immensely grateful for the opportunity to learn from Hanan and the supportive community she has cultivated.”

"Hanan’s mentorship introduced me to a logical approach, a ton of resources, and inspiring experts in the industry."

Hanan is a trusted friend and an inspiring investment professional. Having a thriving short term rental property in Tahoe opened me up to such a fantastic community of like-minded women.

Meeting and working with Hanan opened me up to a new way of thinking about my investments and business strategy, grounding me in reality and organization. This is not easy for a creative type and emotional investor like myself!

Just when I thought I had things ‘figured out’ with Kulhaus Tahoe, I found my next dream property in Palm Springs. Running numbers (not my forté or usual approach), organizing my records, and self-managing was all new to me, but I knew that this was necessary in order for me to scale my business.

I feel more enriched and empowered having gone through this program.

“Not to sound dramatic, but this mentorship has truly changed the trajectory of our lives."

We joined Hanan's mentorship because we really wanted to scale our short term rental portfolio in the pursuit of more time freedom in our lives.

Not only did we acquire all of the skills and confidence needed to research markets, analyze properties and nail the design and set up, but we learned a ton of strategies and tactics along the way to optimize our current vacation rental operation and increase our revenue.

We thought we needed to wait another 1-2 years to scale our portfolio until we had more capital. Turns out that once we got connected to the right creative finance and tax strategist partners through the mentorship, we learned we actually had enough capital to start now.

A few weeks post graduation we are actively analyzing deals and are working to put in our first offer. We are also now on track to have our highest revenue year yet with our current short term rental. We are forever grateful for Hanan's mentorship and guidance for making this possible.
