Beyond Rent: Exploring Property Management
00:38:50 · Nik Boone
[00:38:50] S2: Yeah. No, I mean, in terms of advice, I'm an open book. I've had people reach out about profitability, financials, employees. I've had a lot of discussions on in house maintenance versus subbing it out to vendors, which we didn't touch, but I mean, we have done everything you can and we've, failed and we've succeeded. So if there isn't anybody listening and wants to reach out, can just throw my contact info on here. But I'm an open book, know, and I often meet with people that I compete with here locally and just, you know, shoot information back and forth and just say like, Here are the struggles, and I'll share contacts that I have that can help them and vice versa. So it's there's never, you're never going to take all the business. So there's plenty for everybody to go around. I'm an open book with our competitors. I'm an open book for the country or whoever's listening. So that's pretty much it. And then I'm sure you'll have all of our stats, but we have, I think, 32 employees now. We're at, 1,800 units. We have nine or 10 maintenance technicians with Ascend trucks and, you know, all that stuff. So, we're sizable. I mean, we're definitely not a small company anymore, and so, anybody that needs help to make the next hurdle happen, Let's do it.

[00:40:23] S1: Absolutely. And we'll definitely drop links and contact information into the show notes so people can reach out and continue to learn more. And I really appreciate your approach because I agree. There's so much opportunity out there that there almost is no risk in sharing it. And in fact, I think sharing the information is the best path forward because everyone improves. And one of the things that does happen in our industry is not every property management company is as good as the next one. Right? So there might be owners or residents having bad experiences that honestly puts a little bit of a black eye on our industry. So we don't want that. Right? We wanna have a good reputation as an industry, as property management companies. And so I applaud you for sharing your information and helping everyone grow and become as professional as the team over there at Ascend. [00:41:09] S2: Yeah. No. Of course. Like I said, I'm an open book, so anything that that people need help with. If I can help, I will. If not, then I'll, you know, point somebody in the right direction. But no, this has been great, man. I appreciate the dialogue and the back and forth. It's been informational. [00:41:25] S1: Yeah, absolutely. No, I appreciate your time today, Nik. Hopefully, you continue to see success and continue adding units over there to Ascend. [00:41:33] S2: Sounds good. Thanks. [00:41:34] S1: Alright.
