As I well know, being a twin Dad can be a handful! You gotta learn as you go and do it twice as fast or things catch up with you! Maybe folks will take that as excuse to push off their goals and invest in real estate later! Not so with this months guest speaker!
Join me in welcoming Allentown Investor, and Fellow Twin Dad Matt Pezon! Matt is a humble yet driven entrepreneur that helped lead up the investor lab downtown and built his portfolio to 250+ while not sacrificing family life and raising of twins. When thinking about how to get into real estate, how to scale and how to not sacrifice the things we value most while doing it Matt is someone to hear from. Make sure to mark your calendars and get to this months meet up! Come ready to Pepper Matt with questions, he is a wealth of knowledge and willing to share!

Is he a pilot, an investor, or a fire marshal? Who is to say, but I know the best way to find out is to join us for our July meet up! While the weather heats up so can the stakes on managing your rental properties. Matt is a seasoned vet in the investing space who has been there, done that, has the T-Shirt and the scars. This month is all about managing the risk and occurrence of a fire at one of your rental properties. This is one of those meet-ups where we actually discuss the things that we want to avoid, but when we do help us stand out as real pros. Looking forward to a great conversation with my good Friend Matt!

This month its all about inspections. I have found that knowledge eliminates risk when investing. The more you can know about a property the more confident you can feel about making it a deal. There is a lot you can learn about the market, rents, home values etc, but at the end of the day you have to be able to look at the property and know your rehab and maintenance needs.

This month we are going to dive into that with our surprise guest speaker. We are going to discuss what are the big things that could cost you lots of money, even make the house not sellable. Also we will chat about the things that people make out to be a big deal but are not as bad as you think, including septic tanks! And take time for all your questions about walking buildings and building out estimates. This is one of those down and dirty, practical topics you will not want to miss. Catch you there, invite your friends!

Perhaps the least "fun" aspect of property management and investing? Dealing with tenant issues like non-payment, disputes and worst of all, eviction.
But Litigator (and fellow landlord) Ben Storms of Allentown-based law firm Fitzpatrick Lentz & Bubba eats landlord-tenant law for lunch. Inside and outside the courtroom, he advocates for landlords, big and small, and he's ready to share legal insights about:

• Landlord-tenant law basics: Get a comprehensive overview of your rights and responsibilities as a property owner, including lease agreements, security deposits, and eviction procedures
• Dealing with rent non-payment: Understand your options when a tenant fails to pay rent, including the legal process for handling late payments and navigating the court system
• Eviction process and tenant disputes: Learn how to handle tenant disputes and evictions smoothly, ensuring you're in full compliance with local and state laws

Ben is a family man, spending lots of time on the sidelines during his children's many sports games and activities. He's fresh off a trip to Disney and celebrating a milestone birthday, and looking forward to spring and summer golf outings.
Whether you're a new property owner or an experienced investor, this event will equip you with the knowledge and strategies you need to navigate the legal challenges of property management with confidence. Bring your questions and be sure not to miss this conversation with Ben!

@Amy Jones I don't think you are asking too much at all! I think the core jobs of a property manager are, 1. fill vacancies with qualified tenants, 2. Collect rent/deposits in accordance with local laws, and 3. Maintain the property in a timely efficient manner. That is essentially what you are asking for. Looping a buddy of mine in to see about some recommendations: @Christian Longacre do you know any good PM companies in Charlotte? 

Is he a mountaineer or a professional photographer? Or is he a self storage guru AND a house hacking king? Find out all the answers to these questions and more at this month's meet up!

I’m super excited to introduce our guest speaker for this month as my good friend Josh Youpa! We are going to dig into the numbers of house hacking while having a family as well as digging into self-storage. I have learned so much rubbing shoulders with Josh and I’m hoping you all will as well! You are going to leave both informed as well as inspired by Josh’s story. Excited as always to see you all and encourage each other in our real estate journey!
