Buying and owning investment property is one thing, but managing it successfully is another. Individual property investors can get blindsided by making emotional investment decisions or focusing solely on the bottom line. What if I told you that the key to long-term success was finding the right balance between the two?

According to Ryan Shane, a seasoned real estate investor and second-generation property manager, adopting an investor and owner’s mindset is critical for maintaining a thriving real estate portfolio while maximizing returns. He highlights the importance of viewing each property decision through an ROI lens, from maintenance choices to tenant selection. By thinking beyond short-term gains and prioritizing long-term value, owners can avoid costly mistakes and increase profitability.
