When many of us think of Smart Home Technology we picture Amazon Alexa or Google Home turning our lights on and off or telling us the temperature and time.  These devices can be fun and addictive, but how useful are they to real estate investors and rental property owners, and can they improve our profits?

Sean Miller is the President of Point Central, a provider of Enterprise-Scale Home Automation Solutions, and today he's going to tell us how Smart Home Technology is revolutionizing the way Rental Property Owners and Managers do business.

We'll discuss the true meaning of "Smart Home Technology", and how the Analytics and Real Time Property Intelligence can help monitor your systems and utility usage, as well as identify potential problems before they happen.

We'll also discuss the day-to-day practical uses of this technology, such as remotely controlling vendor and tenant access to your units, eliminating the need for keys and re-keying when a tenant moves out, lowering your utility bills, and adding security and video surveillance.

Smart Homes can also benefit your tenants and Airbnb guests.  Units with this technology command higher rents and increase tenant retention.  And best of all, owners and investors can see a Return-On-Investment upwards of 25% of the cost of installing these systems.

I know you're going to enjoy this fascinating conversation.  You can learn more about Enterprise-Scale Home Automation Solutions by visiting the Point Central website:

Charlie Kao negotiated a Commercial Land Lease for one of his father's properties when he was only 25 years old.  But it wasn't until he had a medical scare that he began taking real estate investing seriously and created a mission statement that would guide him as a "Lifestyle Investor".

Today Charlie shares the many types of investments he's succeeded with, as well as the big loss he took on one of his flips.  Charlie discusses the lessons he learned from his father, why he likes to live in his flips, his airbnb experiences, tools he uses to enhance his efficiency, returns he strives for, and why he under-prices his rentals.

You'll also learn Charlie's personal reasons for working with certain non-profit organizations as a way to give back to refugee youths, as well as his future plans to invest in self-storage, and the unique criteria he's using that will lead to bigger profits.

Pat Sandro is one of the original House Hack Babies.  The duplex that he grew up in was owned by his father, and the rent from the other unit helped pay for his diapers.  From an early age, Pat was paying attention to the way his father invested in real estate and self-managed the 36 units he'd acquired.  But it wasn't until after Pat became a physical therapist that he realized the true benefits of Real Estate Investing.

On today's episode, Pat shares the good times & the bad times.  From the huge profits he made flipping condos in Florida before the crash, to the money he lost after 2009.  Pat talks about the multi-family properties he's acquired, the land contracts that provide 'mailbox money', and the 'do-it-yourself' management style he learned from his father.

Pat also tells us about the vacant home he purchased and the horrific discovery in the basement.  You'll also learn about Fair Housing Laws regarding Emotional Support Animals, and how Pat found himself in trouble when he unknowingly violated these rules.

This is an excellent conversation about the realities of owning and managing your own investment properties, and Pat doesn't hold back from sharing the good and the bad.  Enjoy!
