938: Scaling from 0 to 20+ Doors Using These "Self-Management" Tools & Tips w/Amelia McGee and Grace Gudenkauf: If there’s one thing that’ll make or break your real estate portfolio, it’s property management. When done correctly, property management can feed you consistent, passive income without the everyday stressors of being a landlord. Whenever you hear people talking about bad tenants, midnight phone calls, or surprise maintenance problems, they’re really talking about property management gone wrong. So, how does a rookie real estate investor, with even just one rental property, start managing the right way so they can scale their portfolio faster? Amelia McGee and Grace Gudenkauf, authors of The Self-Managing Landlord, did it all wrong initially. They were picking up every tenant phone call, placing every service request, taking rent payments every which way, and here’s the thing—none of it was working. As they scaled their portfolios, things only got more difficult until fin by BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast

401: Boost Your Cash Flow in 2024 with These “Self-Management” Tips w/Amelia McGee and Grace Gudenkauf: Want more cash flow with less stress while running your rental property portfolio?

Amelia and Grace expose how these scenarios are less frequent than most people think and offer smart strategies to handle them effortlessly. The duo dives into the financial perks of taking the reins on property management, from dramatically cutting costs to boosting tenant retention and cash flow. They lay out a spectrum of management models—from DIY to hiring a dedicated team—and share their personal triumphs (and trials) within each approach. by Real Estate Rookie
