Multifamily Asset Management Best Practices with Mike Kenney (Part 2) | Ep. 159

Author: Mark & Tamiel Kenney August 9, 2023 Duration: 14:34


If you asset manage long enough, you'll deal with a homicide, an arson, or a car crashing into your building. That's not worst-case — that's Tuesday.

In Part 2 of this conversation, Mark Kenney sits down with his twin brother Mike Kenney — a 20-year real estate veteran — to go behind the scenes on what multifamily asset management actually looks like. No theory. Just real situations, real decisions, and hard-won lessons from managing properties across multiple markets.

In this episode you'll learn:

· Why the same leasing strategy can fail on one property and work perfectly on another just 300 feet away
· How to structure staff bonuses that drive occupancy without letting in unqualified tenants
· When to increase marketing spend — and how to use ILS platforms and pay-per-click strategically
· What asset managers can (and can't) control when it comes to evictions and K-1 timelines
· The mindset shift every asset manager needs when the unexpected happens

This is the real, unfiltered side of apartment investing that most people never talk about.
