Real estate investing often requires extensive travel to visit potential investment properties and meet with sellers and other professionals like attorneys, brokers, and property managers. We know how travel costs can really add up and eat into investment profits. Fortunately, we recently discovered a brilliant new travel booking platform called WayAway that is saving users thousands on hotels, flights, rentals and more.




In this article, we'll explore how WayAway works and share creative ways real estate investors can leverage it to maximize savings, earn rewards and optimize business travel. Whether you're looking to purchase rental properties across the country or meet with contractors, WayAway has you covered.


An Overview of WayAway and How it Saves You Money


WayAway is a relatively new, innovative members-only travel service that provides exclusive unpublished discounted rates on hotels and on flights. You'll see results aggregated from various providers like Booking.com and Viator. WayAway Plus functions as both a travel booking site and a cashback rewards program with a simple basic premise - users pay a reasonable annual membership fee of $49.99 to access savings on travel. So when you book a hotel through WayAway's portal to Booking.com, you'll get up to 10% cashback after your stay. The same goes for flights, tours, transports and more.


Cashback rates vary by provider, but tend to range from 3-10%. Members receive 5% cash back on hotels and 10% cash back on hotels. Their service also includes 24/7 access to travel experts and guides for your trip. The cash back never expires and you can withdraw your funds using PayPal.


WayAway takes it to the next level by partnering directly with thousands of luxury hotels and resorts to secure unpublished last minute rates not available anywhere else. WayAway also partners with major airlines to get bulk discount pricing on flights, allowing members to save hundreds on airfare.

The savings are seriously massive. On a recent trip to scope out a potential rental property in Hawaii, an investor got an ocean view room at the Sheraton Waikiki for $120 per night instead of the typical $400+ rate. They saved over $1,000 on a one week stay!



Maximizing Savings for Real Estate Investor Travels


As a real estate investor, being flexible with your travel plans is the key to maximizing savings with WayAway's last minute deals. Here are some of my top tips:

  • Monitor new hotel deals daily and be ready to book if something great pops up for your destination

  • Set up Price Drop Alerts to get notified if rates decrease on a specific route

  • Book one way flights into your destination city, then score a cheap last minute rate home

  • Use WayAway's member-only Concierge service to request advice on unpublished deals for your upcoming stays

  • Take red eye flights and late night arrivals to secure the best rates

One WayAway user booked a last minute room at the Park Hyatt New York for $250 instead of $1000+ just by being flexible on dates and taking a red eye. That additional $750 of savings was huge.


Business Travel Hacks & Rewards Maximization


For real estate investors who travel frequently for business, WayAway offers some cool features to make life easier and earn free rewards.

  • Get discounted Uber rides credited to your account for airport transportation

  • Access lounge passes for free food, drinks and wifi while waiting for flights

  • Earn WayPoints rewards currency on bookings to redeem for free nights, flights and more

  • Receive members-only discounts on attractions, dining and transportation at your destination

Maximizing your rewards earnings from business travel is essential, and fun! You can save up WayPoints from property scouting trips to redeem for free nights on your next investment property visits.

The WayAway app also provides easy expense tracking and reporting for everything booked through the platform. This makes managing expenses and writing off business travel a breeze during tax time.


Unlocking Global Real Estate Markets


For real estate investors looking to diversify their portfolios globally, WayAway provides HUGE benefits.


Members get access to unpublished rates at thousands of luxury hotels and resorts in 100+ countries. This makes exploring new real estate markets like Mexico, Thailand, Spain and more incredibly affordable.

Recent deals we've seen include:

  • 5 star beachfront resorts in Costa Rica from $99/night

  • Luxury apartments in Paris from $60/night

  • Overwater villas in Bali from $250/night

By scoring luxury accommodations for budget prices, you can stretch your investment capital further when exploring global real estate markets.

WayAway also has local market experts available providing insider tips on neighborhoods, up and coming investment areas, local laws/regulations, and more.

  • Annual fee: $49.99 yearly fee maybe steep upfront, but can pay off if you travel a lot.
