On this episode of the Business and BBQ podcast, Tim is joined by Kevin Ortner, CEO of Renter’s Warehouse, the nation’s largest property management company. Renter’s Warehouse is unique in that they provide their clients and potential clients with a vast network of educational resources and individualized support as they consider getting into real estate through rental properties. Kevin purchased his first rental property as a freshman in college, where he essentially got to live rent-free in one side of a duplex by renting out the other side. He caught the bug at that point, seeing the potential in rental investing, and he has been encouraging others to do the same ever since. It is interesting to note that most rental real estate investors own 1-5 properties and are able to make considerable enough profits long-term to make it all worth it. What makes their investment even better is not having to mess with property management.By working with Renter’s Warehouse, investors get all of the benefits of owning rental properties without any of the drawbacks such as maintenance issues, tenant problems, and rent collection. Many people are hesitant to get into rental investing because of their perceptions that they need to put up a lot of money out of pocket or have had previous real estate investing experience, but investing in rental properties and partnering with a property management company like Renter’s Warehouse is simple enough for the average American to be profitable doing it. A property management company even takes the guess work out of choosing the right tenants who will not destroy your home.Kevin goes on to talk about the leadership philosophies and culture that he tries to create at Renter’s Warehouse. Primarily, he tries to surround himself with good people who are emotionally intelligent and skilled and then make everyone feel like they can be transparent, authentic, and willing to learn from mistakes.His new podcast, Rent Estate, is geared specifically towards rental real estate investing, and future episodes will feature interviews with Renter’s Warehouse employees from different areas of business who will provide their own perspectives on the benefits of this type of investment. This educational platform is intended to be another way to provide value in the form of free education to people who are involved in real estate investing or those who are considering buying rental properties for this purpose.Links:Audible trial promotional link: http://www.audibletrial.com/thHubSpot promotional link: https://www.hubspot.com/th Connect with Kevin:kevin@renterswarehouse.com 952-224-9597https://RentersWarehouse.com Rent Estate Revolution: https://amzn.to/3282sK6https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rent-estate-podcast/id1467392453 Connect with Tim:https://timherriage.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/herriagehttps://twitter.com/timherriage https://www.facebook.com/timherriage/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/timherriage/?source_id=734272966682056https://www.instagram.com/timherriage/
