Episode Synopsis

Most landlords fail at property management because they don’t know what questions to ask—or what red flags to watch for. In this episode, I lay out nine brutally practical tips to stop sucking at property management, drawn from two decades of experience and hard-won lessons from managing 20–30 properties with minimal effort. From understanding fee structures and tenant criteria to reading between the lines on maintenance charges, eviction processes, and referral checks, I explain how to vet a property manager like a pro—and how to catch the warning signs before they start costing you money.Then, I share how I scaled from six to twenty cash-flowing properties while stationed overseas, using one capable property manager as the backbone of his operation. It’s a masterclass in systems, leverage, and trust—but also a reminder that nobody cares about your properties as much as you do. If you’ve ever wondered how to grow your portfolio without losing control, this episode shows you exactly how to build a team, hold them accountable, and finally make property management work for you—not against you.
