"Like the property management company that we're working with now, for all of our properties, they only do the bigger properties. And that's how they're set up. And so, they know how to do that really well. And one thing they do that just blows us away is their marketing. We pay that expense, but what we're getting for it is just blowing us away." - Lee Yoder
"People will talk about, you have one vacancy, and it's not a big deal on a 47-unit like it is in a duplex where you go up to 50% vacant." - Lee Yoder
"With this property management company on the 96-unit, they don't have to charge us for sending somebody out because the people were there. So, the efficiency of it, it's less cost." - Lee Yoder
