Call it a niche, or call it the best side hustle a Realtor can have. In this episode Matt talks with Naples, FL agents Mike Zeccino & Shaun Kass of The Agency who have built their traditional real estate business by building a profitable short term rental management company. They have built systems for converting both tenants and owners into traditional buyers and sellers. They manage over 100 rental units and have converted their business on the short-term rental side into over 27 sales last year. They provide insights into the challenges and opportunities of property management, including the importance of providing excellent customer service and being available 24/7. They also discuss their marketing strategies, such as using social media platforms like Instagram Reels and partnering with local companies for collaborations. The conversation concludes with advice for agents looking to get into property management and the importance of scalability and planning for future growth.
