Investing in rental property can be a big adventure, and everyone loves a good adventure story. The educational nature of those stories is part of the reason we’re launching this blog.
Because the adventure can get complicated. Should you go with variable or flat rate property management? What do you need to know about city inspections? What are cost segregations, and can they benefit you?
While we aim to share insights and tips on property management and real-estate investing, along the way, we’ll also share some highly informative stories of Epic Property Management’s journey to success.
If you own rental property—or if you’re considering such an investment—you can learn a great deal from the Epic journey our owner has taken. That’s part of the reason many podcasters have invited him onto their shows over the years.
As we get this blog started, we’ll be sharing some of those past episodes here.
Today, we’re kicking off with 2 great listens:
- Real Estate Takeoff
- Making Money in Multifamily Real Estate Show
