In this episode of SlumDogg Millionaires, we get brutally honest about the high-level dedication required to protect your real estate empire. We also dive into the technical side of the business, including ironclad contracts, Florida legal compliance for 3-day notices, and why vendor relationships are your secret weapon during hurricane season.
