Transparency is one of the key value-adds Renters Warehouse offers its investors. In this week's podcast Kevin Ortner, President and CEO of Renters Warehouse, shares how his company not only increases transparency to residential real estate investors but also increases efficiency in an industry that has historically lagged in technological advancements.

In this fast-paced episode, Kevin Ortner and Noel Christopher take a look at the state of the rental market, while also highlighting opportunities that are available for property investors in the SFR build-to-rent space.As most investors know, there are a number of different dynamics going on in the housing market right now.Supply is low, demand is high, and mortgage rates are low. Investors are buying these investments up, and there’s not much inventory. Noel Christopher, Senior Vice President of Portfolio Services, says that SFR investments remain a solid investment. In this space, rent collection and occupancy rates have always trended higher than multifamily, but even throughout these current times of economic instability, the trend has continued. SFR as an investment has remained strong. The entry-level home buyer and the entry-level renter are essentially the same person, says Noel –they may not be able to buy right now, due to the economic impact of the Covid response. But they will still need housing, and demand for SFR rentals is still high.

During this 30 minute conversation Kevin and I discussed everything from the actual single family rental market, marketing and showing activity, and where he sees it going from here. It was nice to have a discussion with Kevin that was positive. Renters warehouse felt an obvious dip in late March, but Kevin's opinion is that they already see April rebounding.

On this episode of the Business and BBQ podcast, Tim is joined by Kevin Ortner, CEO of Renter’s Warehouse, the nation’s largest property management company. Renter’s Warehouse is unique in that they provide their clients and potential clients with a vast network of educational resources and individualized support as they consider getting into real estate through rental properties. Kevin purchased his first rental property as a freshman in college, where he essentially got to live rent-free in one side of a duplex by renting out the other side. He caught the bug at that point, seeing the potential in rental investing, and he has been encouraging others to do the same ever since. It is interesting to note that most rental real estate investors own 1-5 properties and are able to make considerable enough profits long-term to make it all worth it. What makes their investment even better is not having to mess with property management.By working with Renter’s Warehouse, investors get all of the benefits of owning rental properties without any of the drawbacks such as maintenance issues, tenant problems, and rent collection. Many people are hesitant to get into rental investing because of their perceptions that they need to put up a lot of money out of pocket or have had previous real estate investing experience, but investing in rental properties and partnering with a property management company like Renter’s Warehouse is simple enough for the average American to be profitable doing it. A property management company even takes the guess work out of choosing the right tenants who will not destroy your home.Kevin goes on to talk about the leadership philosophies and culture that he tries to create at Renter’s Warehouse. Primarily, he tries to surround himself with good people who are emotionally intelligent and skilled and then make everyone feel like they can be transparent, authentic, and willing to learn from mistakes.His new podcast, Rent Estate, is geared specifically towards rental real estate investing, and future episodes will feature interviews with Renter’s Warehouse employees from different areas of business who will provide their own perspectives on the benefits of this type of investment. This educational platform is intended to be another way to provide value in the form of free education to people who are involved in real estate investing or those who are considering buying rental properties for this purpose.Links:Audible trial promotional link: http://www.audibletrial.com/thHubSpot promotional link: https://www.hubspot.com/th Connect with Kevin:kevin@renterswarehouse.com 952-224-9597https://RentersWarehouse.com Rent Estate Revolution: https://amzn.to/3282sK6https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rent-estate-podcast/id1467392453 Connect with Tim:https://timherriage.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/herriagehttps://twitter.com/timherriage https://www.facebook.com/timherriage/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/timherriage/?source_id=734272966682056https://www.instagram.com/timherriage/

The concerns are real –what if another recession is looming on the horizon? What if stock prices are overvalued? What if the housing market experiences a downturn right after you buy a fixer-upper?  In today’s episode, Renters Warehouse’s Chief Strategy Officer Greg Rand and Kevin Ortner share how investing in single family residences (SFR) as rentals –as a long-term buy-and-hold strategy can help you to future-proof your investments.

Kevin Ortner, with Renters Warehouse, is back on air with Abhi to discuss real estate investing for the long-term. Abhi brings up some recent statistics that are shocking — one in three Americans have nothing saved for retirement, and half of all Americans have less than $10,000 saved for retirement. Abhi and Kevin discuss ways for you to start saving. Hint: It has to do with real estate. They get into the differences between Millennials and Generation Z and the differences between their saving habits. The Generation Z population has seen that Millennials are a little bit more frivolous with their spending habits and they have felt more compelled to save their money. Are you betting on Social Security to help you out in retirement? Abhi and Kevin have a good conversation on what that will look like for the next generations. Regardless of what that might look like for each person, they both agree that it can’t be the only resource that carries you into retirement, and there needs to be a financial plan in place. Real Estate investing is definitely a tool that you can start using now to plan for your retirement!

Kevin has a few pieces of advice for her and he gives her some tips on what she should consider when it comes to increasing the rent. The first thing he says is that she can use the rent increase index for her market. Brock is closing on his first rental property next month in Atlanta. He wants to know what he should start doing now to set himself up for success. Kevin gives his opinion and says the first step he can take is to look for partners to help you and to start looking for tenants. You can’t start leasing the property until you have officially closed, but you can start looking and put out some “teasers” to let people know it’s coming soon!

He gets into the projected numbers and amount of individuals who are expected to rent a home over the next few years. With so much change going on in the market, Abhi and Kevin clarify some misconceptions and want to keep you educated and informed! They transition into diversification and what it truly means to have diversification when you are investing your money. Kevin says that he doesn’t recommend investing all of your money in real estate, just like he doesn’t recommend investing all of your money in the stock market. He says it is all about having diversity in your portfolio and investing in properties that can generate a larger cash-flow. Finally, they shift the focus on the latest technology and tools that allow real estate investing to be so much more practical and convenient. Renters Warehouse is one of these tools that allows you to develop your portfolio by investing in different markets. It all ties back to the diversification and where we are in the real estate market. Find out more about Renters Warehouse at RentersWarehouse.com

If a property is by good schools and parks, the demographic could very well be different from a property closer to the city. Take into consideration who would want to live there. In addition, more millennials and Gen X’ers are renting instead of buying these days. To learn more about our Investor Fuel Real Estate Mastermind, please visit InvestorFuel.com.
