February 18 Hiring Your First BDM and Building Referral Relationships to Unlock Growth
Feb. 18, 2026

In this week’s NARPM podcast episode, host Pete Neubig interviews Trent Bray, who trains Business Development Managers (BDMs) for Property Management Inc. (PMI) franchise partners on the sales process. Bray advises new owners to wait until they are near the break-even point to hire their first BDM, arguing they should first understand the sales process themselves. He emphasizes that property management is a relationship-driven, referral-based business and prefers hiring a salesperson over a marketer to build these networks. Bray suggests BDMs build relationships with real estate agents using platforms like LinkedIn to warm up the connection before in-person meetings, and also recommends networking with mortgage brokers (not lenders) as a secondary, investor-focused referral source.

February 11 Why Most Property Managers Don’t Build Wealth - and How to Fix It
Feb. 11, 2026
In this week’s NARPM podcast episode, Pete Neubig interviews Justin Anderson, founder and CEO of RentSmart, licensed broker and author of "Funny Money: Building Wealth in a System Rigged to Keep You Broke." Anderson argues that property managers are uniquely positioned to build wealth but often miss the opportunity and should aim to become investment advisors for their clients, suggesting that owning investment properties is key to becoming a better advisor. He claims that housing is cheaper now than it has ever been when measuring value by gold, and explains the four phases of the market cycle, emphasizing that the current "millionaire maker phase" is the best time for long-term investors to buy real estate because it is "on sale." The conversation also covers the importance of understanding neighborhood and property life cycles to find the best deals.
