This triplex was the first multi-unit building I ever managed, and it came from a great connection. The owner is a local real estate investor I had the chance to feature on my podcast. We kept in touch afterward, and when he needed a property manager, he reached out. Managing this property was a learning experience—the building had two apartments rented to six students and a basement unit rented to a low-income senior. It was my first time handling such a diverse tenant profile, and it helped me grow my portfolio from 1 door to 8. I also gained valuable experience navigating student rentals and the specific considerations and regulations surrounding senior tenants, especially those with low income. This property marked a turning point in my business, and I’m grateful for the trust he placed in me.
