When you hear about multifamily real estate investing, the conversation often focuses on returns, tax advantages, and market cycles. But what about the actual operations? What does it really take to manage an apartment complex day in and day out, and why should that matter to investors?

She shares real-world examples, highlights common challenges, and explains why successful asset management is critical to protecting investor capital. What you'll learn in this episode: - Why the real work in multifamily begins after the acquisition - How operational challenges can affect both tenant experience and investor returns - What daily property management actually involves, from emergencies to pricing strategies - The hidden costs of running a property and how they impact net operating income - How experienced operators use data, structure, and discipline to maintain performance - The difference between short-term returns and long-term asset preservation - Why the quality of the operator is just as important as the quality of the deal Whether you're a passive investor or looking to understand the operational side of real estate, this episode will give you a clearer picture of what it takes to run an apartment complex successfully.
