In this powerhouse REIA Mastery Series live session, Andy Kouri breaks down what it really takes to grow a property management company that doesn’t just survive—it scales.
Andy shares the full story of how his family’s business, Corey Management, went from 379 units to managing over 2,700 doors across Omaha and Des Moines. From stepping in after his father's passing to implementing military-grade operational systems and growing a team that runs like clockwork, Andy pulls back the curtain on how he’s engineering long-term success in one of real estate’s most brutal segments.
Expect blunt truth about what actually matters in property management—whether you're managing 5 units or 5,000. He covers:
- Why systems and workflows are non-negotiable (and how they built theirs in AppFolio)
- How accountability, not heroes, creates performance
- Why speed and urgency in leasing, maintenance, and communication are deal-breakers
- The right time to hire (and what roles to hire first)
- His modular pod structure and how they run lean without chaos
- Red flags that scream it’s time to fire your PM company
- What not to do when leasing—especially AI agents and friend/family tenants
Whether you’re self-managing a duplex or looking to build a third-party management empire, this episode is a masterclass on how to think like an operator and build a real business—not just buy real estate.
