In this episode of Scaling Up, Shane Unruh dives into the often overlooked realities of holding real estate long-term. While most investing advice focuses on how to buy property, Shane lays out why the real challenge begins after closing the deal.

From unexpected capital expenses to city policy changes and tenants tying garbage bags wrong (yes, really), Shane shares real-world examples and lessons learned from managing hundreds of units. He also touches on:

• The hidden costs that can destroy your cash flow

• Why having a budget isn't enough — and why you should double it

• How larger companies approach capital expenditures (and what you can learn from them)

If you’re a new or aspiring property investor, this episode is a must-listen. Learn how to plan for the long game — and why cash reserves are king in real estate.
