Landlords buy rental properties expecting passive income, but they often end up mediating constant conflict. When well-meaning owners delay hard conversations out of empathy, a single late rent payment can quickly turn into a massive financial liability.
To help all parties involved in property management navigate the many such issues that arise within the industry, Fetch Home Management's Zane Browne and Drew Weinhold are launching this brand new show: The Broken Faucet Podcast. In this debut episode, they introduce themselves, lay out their vision for the show, and immediately get to work breaking down some of the specific mistakes that can wipe out years of profit.
