Multifamily Streamlined with Leslie Mathis
Thank you for joining Multifamily Streamlined where we will discuss multifamily trends, operations, renovations, leasing, and basically all things multifamily. I am Leslie Mathis, founder of Streamline Multifamily Group. I have created a podcast as a resource to all my apartment friends and family. 22 years ago, I fell into the industry as a Housekeeper while looking for an apartment in Mooresville, NC. I’ve worked my way up from a very entry level position and now I am a Consultant and an Asset Manager. I share this because I’ve walked a mile in most of your shoes and hope you can learn from my missteps, bloopers, wins, and accomplishments. For 2023, my goal is to release 1 podcast per week sharing all things just mentioned, along with a great interview line-up where you can hear from peers, mentors, leaders, and vendors in the industry.

Surprise and Disappoint???
Perhaps this episode will be surprise and disappoint but a few months ago I had a conversation with someone I don’t know well and they stumbled upon this podcast. They shared with me how much they loved it and I wasn’t sure how sincere that really was but the conversation continued. It was what I needed to hear that week and my take away was a good one… these are things most of us know but we need confirmation or to hear it from a source that has a different perspective or that is not as close to our situation. See it enforces what you already know or feel in your gut. Probably the best compliment I have received came from this person - they told me they were trying to finagle a way for their 17 year old daughter to listen to the podcast for those reasons just mentioned. As a mom of a teenager that really pulled at my heartstrings. My goal for this podcast and honestly any of my speaking engagements is to be a resource. I never want to tell you what you are doing wrong, I want you to learn from my journey and hopefully save you a few missteps along the way. I also want to share my perspective from the ownership side to help you hone your skills as an operator. I want you to see the ownership perspective which will ultimately provide a focus on increasing the value of the asset. No matter the length of the hold ALL owners goals are the same - to maximize the value of the asset. Some of us just have longer to do so than others.
