Why We Built Lifestyle Real Estate Advisors

 For over a decade, Mike and Lauren DeNardo built and self-managed a growing real estate portfolio while raising two young children and working demanding careers. Mike spent 20+ years in corporate sales consulting, navigating high W‑2 taxes, while Lauren spent 17+ years in corporate banking before achieveing Real Estate Professional Status (REPS), unlocking a significant tax advantage.

Through trial, error, and real-world experience, they developed a repeatable blueprint: turn family-focused vacation homes into cash-flowing, tax-efficient assets that create unforgettable memories. Their Shenandoah cabins became the model—optimized for returns, designed for families, and structured for maximum tax benefit.

Friends and colleagues began asking how they could do the same, and Lifestyle Real Estate Advisors was born. Their mission: help high-income professionals reduce taxes legally, generate passive income, and create spaces where families reconnect.

Now, the LifeStyle Real Estate Advisors is bringing this system to others who want freedom, wealth, and meaningful experiences—proving that smart real estate can enhance both your financial future and your family’s life today.
