Property managers love to talk about NOI but what if that’s not what actually keeps clients around?

In this powerful solo episode, Vendoroo Chief Evangelist Pablo Gonzalez breaks down why NOI might just be a mirage - a metric that looks great on paper but fails to address the real reason owners fire their PMs.

The real metric? KTA — Kitchen Table Arguments.
Because when stress peaks and owners start asking, “Why are we even doing this?”, your NOI won’t save the relationship.

Through stories of investors, operators, and industry leaders like Jordan Muela, Pablo reframes success from numbers to narratives and shows how Agentic AI gives PMs the bandwidth to finally lead, not just manage.

You’ll Learn:

💡 Why NOI opens doors but emotional friction closes them
⚙️ How to identify and reduce your clients’ “KTA moments” before they threaten the relationship
🤖 How Agentic AI turns repetitive tasks into relationship-building opportunities
🧭 The new playbook for scaling personalization and profitability without burning out your team

This isn’t just another “AI in PM” conversation, it’s a redefinition of what success means in property management.

🎧 Listen now to discover why true retention isn’t earned through returns, it’s earned through relief, recognition, and relationships that last.
