Imagine this: your tenants are happy, your rent’s in on time, and your maintenance issues are resolved without any unnecessary stress. Sounds too good to be true?

It’s not! Meet Dana Dunford, CEO of Hemlane—the next-gen property management platform offering smarter solutions for all your rental headaches. Dana founded Hemlane with a mission to help landlords and small-scale investors manage their properties with ease, transparency, and efficiency. Hemlane has already helped oversee more than 28,000 properties nationwide—and they're just getting started.

In our interview, Dana and I talked about why most property software is outdated, how AI is best used with humans (not instead of them), and why landlords need more than just monthly owner statements to stay sane and profitable.
