How To Manage Your Rentals From Anywhere | From Military To Millionaire Podcast

In this episode, I break down how to manage your own rental properties remotely—step by step—using the exact processes my friend Dave uses to keep vacancies under two weeks in San Diego, CA and Jacksonville, NC. You’ll learn:

How to fill vacancies fast with smart, wide-net marketing (Zillow, Trulia, HotPads, Realtor, FB Marketplace, Craigslist, IG, word-of-mouth) and pro-level photos/video

Why enforcing “application before walkthrough” saves time and filters for qualified tenants

The pipeline: application → walkthrough (with a trusted local) → attorney-vetted lease → first month + deposit → move-in

How to structure deposits and rent accounts (separate, interest-bearing) and avoid commingling

What to include in a welcome letter, plus move-in/move-out forms that protect your deposit decisions

How to build a maintenance Rolodex and a reliable on-the-ground helper for inspections and showings
