Without tenants, a rental real estate business cannot cash flow. In our real estate business, our philosophy is to treat our tenants well. We do this not only because we believe in treating people well in general, but also because we understand the importance of having tenants stay in order to produce monthly income.

 

On this episode of Investing in Real Estate, Natali and I are sharing how we handle issues with our tenants. We’ll talk about power exchanges, dealing with gray areas in lease agreements, and much more. Don’t miss episode 322 of Investing in Real Estate!
