At 24 years old, Sebastian built four of the most unique Airbnbs in Puerto Rico. A container home, a van conversion, a cement cave, and even a boat with a glass dome. All built by hand. All paid for in cash. All producing real profit.
In this video we break down exactly how he started with $30,000 and zero construction experience, what each unit actually cost to build, how much each one makes in revenue and profit, and what his real cash on cash return looks like.
Everything that could go wrong did go wrong. Contractors disappeared. Permits were chaotic. A hurricane hit on opening night. And somehow it still worked.
But here’s the twist. This was never really about the units. It was always about the land.
Is Puerto Rico an untapped investing goldmine or is this just relentless optimism paying off? Let’s break it down.
