Episode 20: Debbie Williams

Property Secrets Podcast

Today’s guest started out purchasing property investments when she got into real estate. Although she was paying a relatively high fee for her property rental manager at the time, Debbie's primary concern was not the amount of money she was spending but the quality of service she was getting. Her unfulfilled expectations prompted her to be proactive in deciding to managing her own properties and eventually led her into Property Management. Today, Debbie is an expert in this field.

In today’s episode, Debbie talks about the advantages of having a great property manager. She sheds light on some significant issues involving property rental like the possible reasons why a property may be sitting vacant and not even generating inquries. Debbie also shares some tips on how to encourage a good tenant to stay in a property for an extended period, how you can save on costs regarding maintenance and vacancy and some strategies she uses to find you a tenant in the quickest amount of time possible.
