Steven Carlson is a serial entrepreneur, start-up consultant, and real estate investor. A New York City native, he holds a Bachelor’s degree in Economics and a Master’s degree in Real Estate, both from NYU. He’s a firm believer that no one should have to learn the hard way how to start and run a business. When everyone’s best ideas become reality, the whole world benefits.

After achieving success with multiple start-ups and ventures, Steven is taking his passion for fledgling businesses to the next level – by sharing his knowledge with aspiring and seasoned entrepreneurs online. Over two decades, he’s garnered a wealth of practical tools, resources, and insider tricks. Now, Steven is putting all his cards on the table, so you can start bringing your big visions to life and turning them into money-makers.

Whether it’s short-term rental strategies or a bookkeeping guide for beginners, Steven’s books will give you everything you need to thrive in a competitive marketplace.

Today, Steven lives in Manhattan with his wife, three kids, and their chocolate labradors. He was one of the earliest investors and hosts on Airbnb, and these days, he manages over 20 rental properties across the United States – with his eye on a few more.

Above all, these wise words by Peter Drucker have guided his life and career: “The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
