In this episode of The Co-Host Bros Podcast, Matt Codd and Austin Spitz welcome back Justin Powell — but this time, it's not about a rental horror story. It’s about growth, hustle, and scaling fast. Justin shares how he went from zero to managing over 20 short-term rentals in less than a year, and what it took to build Seabrook Vacation Management into a thriving operation.

In this episode:

• How Justin found and onboarded 20+ properties
• What systems and processes kept him sane during the growth
• Lessons he learned the hard way (and how you can avoid them)
• Why relationship-building is his #1 growth hack

This is a must-listen for anyone growing their STR portfolio or looking to build a management business from scratch.
