What if the next law passed could kill your revenue—and you didn’t even see it coming?

In this episode of Property Management Frame Breakers, host Pablo Gonzalez sits down with Alex Zweydoff, government affairs powerhouse and rising voice in Florida property management, to unpack one of the most overlooked risks in the industry: legislation.

Whether it’s lead-based paint fines up to $37,500 per day, the slow-motion Section 8 collapse, or squatter loopholes that cost PMs months of rent, Alex is at the front lines—meeting with lawmakers, fighting for clarity, and sounding the alarm.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ The sleeper risk that could bankrupt small PM businesses overnight
✅ Why squatter laws are actually a revenue lever (if you advocate for the right one)
✅ The real reason Section 8 is broken—and how to navigate it anyway
✅ How to get involved without flying to D.C. (and why you probably should)
✅ The "EPA Trap": how a single missing initial could cost you $25K
✅ Why AI and advocacy are two sides of the same coin—and both are about owning outcomes

Alex shares his playbook for staying ahead, staying relevant, and making a difference—not just in your business, but in your community, your market, and your industry.

This episode is a rally cry: The future doesn’t just belong to the most efficient operator. It belongs to the one who shows up, builds relationships, and shapes the rules.
