@aaron_wind3 @realEstateTrent She just orders a plain coffee with some milk. They usually do it right on the spot. Almost zero wait time.

@jandreini1 Well said!

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@Dirtdog I might have a property for a 7Brew. Who do I contact?

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent Real super power to be able to talk with someone and focus on them and not you! So many people just want to talk about themselves!

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent This is awesome. Where do we find the full video?

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@HealthcareREguy So true.

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent So true. We’re in contract for a property now and my partner calls me and says pretty sure this deal is dead. 1 day later it’s back on It’s off it’s on it’s off and now back on again. 😂😂

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent Great line I heard someone say to someone else taking forever to get to the point.

“Land the plane already!!”

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent 100% we bought one of our best deals from a massive real estate company. They were exiting the market. Came to a number that worked for both sides and bam done.

@realEstateTrent Looking to connect with a broker/data center. Have a property in the southern tier of NYS that can be a great fit for a data center.

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent How do you go about hiring a property manager for out of town properties? Trial and error? Do you keep all accounting and money in your office or does pm do?

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@LandlordRescue @realEstateTrent Summed up perfectly! My life!

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@ikehobbs I think it’s just a negotiating tactic by him. Pretty sure he’s doing really well!

8:30am this morning.

In one of our tenant’s restaurants Mediterranean spot, gyros, ovens on, full prep mode.

Owner calls me over and says:
“Can I extend my lease for 10 years?”

I say, “Business must be booming.”

He says, “Actually, it’s been slow the last few months.”

🤷🤷🤷

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

Middle of winter.
Sub-zero temps for weeks.

Tenant calls, water leaking into their space.

Roofers go out and say the roof drain is backed up.
“We need a plumber to snake it.”

Before spending the money, I call the former property manager.
He says, “The outlet where that drain discharges is probably frozen solid.”

He heads out, knocks off the ice at the discharge point…

Boom. Massive flow of water. Problem solved.

No plumber. No snaking. No hours billed chasing the wrong issue.

Lesson:
Good management is knowing how your building actually works, especially in extreme conditions.
And sometimes it’s not what you know… it’s who you call.

Could’ve easily been thousands wasted.

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

IMO anytime a major issue is found. Your example is a good one or if there’s entire roof needs to be replaced and it wasn’t disclosed than asking for a price reduction would be ok. If the property was represented in one way and that’s not accurate, I don’t understand what the issue with asking for a price reduction to reflect how the property actually is. It still seems to bother people 🤷

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@sweatystartup This is so good.

[Sam Noble @samnob95]

@realEstateTrent 😂. Too true!
