We have done some soul searching for the last several months and through that reflection, we have found that we are very overwhelmed. So much so that we have stopped doing the things that we love and have become, well, workaholics.

If we are not working on Your Landlord Resource, we are working on one of the investment properties. If not either of those, we are playing catch up to chores around the house.

We have been good about spending time with our kids and our parents as often as we can, but there is so much more we want to do. We just need more time to do those things.

So, in this episode we are talking about our need to step back from this podcast. To catch up on some much needed us time, maintenance to OUR home, and reset our time management.

This is not goodbye, this is simply “see you soon”.

Do you ever wonder what other landlords may be interested in learning? This week on the podcast we are kind of creating a little pseudo networking by discussing which episodes are landlord favorites with our top 5 podcast released.

As we approach our 100th episode and that 20,000 download mark, we thought maybe it would be a good idea to talk about what you, the listeners, loved the most.

It’s a quicker episode with a short synopsis of our top 5 episodes. We are proud of them and hope you will love them too.

This episode is all about How We Did It, when we renovated 2 out of state units in Idaho, traveling to the units twice, for 4 days each.

We are discussing the condition of the units (one was in bad shape and one not so bad) and the work performed by ourselves and those we hired. As we did not have a team in Idaho, we also talked about how we quickly were able to put one together.

For the first time, we painted kitchen cabinets, using Beyond Paint Products. So, listen to the process we followed and how they turned out. In addition to the kitchen cabinets, we or those we hired painted these units, installed new lighting, replaced old and dirty plugs and switches with decora style ones, replaced the old yucky carpet with LVP, and replaced Formica kitchen countertops with Quartz counters we purchased for a steal.

Communication, organization, and time management were all key elements to pulling this renovation off and we are here to share how it all worked out!

This week on the podcast, we are doing a shorty episode as an update to a previous episode (#44) on the Deck and Balcony Law, SB721, for California. There have been some significant changes in the dates and inspection specifications.

Now before you click away and say that this law doesn’t pertain to you, take a minute to listen and learn what California is doing to protect tenants and condominium owners when it comes to the safety of their decks and balconies. FYI, Florida has already passed a similar law.

Many states have a law like this on the books and are just working out the details so this might just affect your rental property sooner rather than later.

2025 is coming in hot! And we are here to talk about why you should NOT be waiting for the new year to focus on your business plans.

This week on the podcast we are talking about planning and strategy. Not only for the next coming year, but for many years out.

We discuss those aspects but will go beyond the focus of financial evaluations and make you think about your business as a whole and what part you play in it.

What do you like best about owning rentals and what makes you cringe when you have to handle it? How much do you want to scale and how quickly do you want to add more rental properties to your portfolio? When do you plan to step back from hands on management?

Property improvements, the value of time, as well as planning for financial growth now and in the future, are all discussed in this episode.

Lately, we have been getting landlords asking us if it would be a good idea for them to get their real estate license. And where we wish we could give a definitive YES or NO, we can only explain the pros and cons to getting and holding a real estate license.

This episode will give landlords pondering with the thought of getting their real estate license as much information as possible to, hopefully, help you make that decision.

Holding your real estate license is fantastic and has A LOT of benefits, but only if you have a plan on how you will use it. Is it only for personal use in your rental property business or do you plan to manage other investors’ rentals as well? The financial investment into holding that license is something to consider as well.

So, give this episode a listen and see if a real estate license will benefit your rental property business or not.

Effective communication is key for landlords in maintaining a positive relationship with tenants and ensuring smooth rental operations.

Different situations require different communication methods, and landlords should be mindful of when and how to use each one.

There is a time and place to be casual and absolutely a time when being professional is of utmost importance.

In this episode, we are discussing the different forms of communication you, as landlords, can use and in what situation you should use them.

We also address the tone, the language, and in what instances it’s important to be communicating with your tenants.
