Since we already own a lot of properties, we work to partner with cheap and skilled tradespeople saving maintenance costs.We are proactive in our maintenance so our tenants are happier and they stay on average longer than most tenant occupancy periods (which saves the owner on future leasing).We set up leases to end during summer months where we have the most tenants looking for new houses to rent so we can maximize rental rates.Even though we rent fast, we prioritize make ready repairs so that we can continually keep the property up to maximize rental potential and identify and get great tenants.We are proactive in our collection of rent so we evict faster than self managing investors.We perform inspections to identify how tenants are keeping the property to not renew leases to hoarders and people who break lease terms.We perform move in and move out inspections by video to document condition to charge back tenants on security deposits.For some investors, they are not as on top of all aspects of property management and they should get help (to improve ROI). 

I jokingly told him he was speaking from both sides of his mouth.

Is everything that comes out of his mouth all fictional?

They'll initially express interest, then they realize it may be better to keep their mouths (and pocketbooks) shut to see if you'll foot the bill yourself.Fences are typically installed by one homeowner.

Ours has never had a vacancy in 20 years, with no advertising other than word of mouth and have even had repeat tenants.

We're under contact on our first triplex, and want to buy at least 12 more units in the next four years, moving towards small and large apartment complexes as soon as possible.Want to hit at least $2,500/mo cash flow by the four year mark, happier if it's over $3,000.

I've got his hour radio podcast on free subscription as well and the no-nonsense that comes out of his mouth is purely epic.

Then I became well known for doing it and that word of mouth also brought in some traffic as well. 

@Judy MitchellThinking of Thailand makes my mouth water!

With the contacts I have in the area and word of mouth, I am sure I could get it full pretty quick.My suggestion would be to start with a weekday time in the morning and plan to meet somewhere that everyone could eat some breakfast and chat.
