Successful property management companies often start in the same way.

An owner of a home has a challenge in finding the right company to manage their property and decides they could be more profitable if they applied their own ideas and passions to it. For Jennifer Frankenstein Harris the search for a technology-forward manager in her area proved difficult, so Great Ocean Condos was born.

Focusing on condo complexes in the Great Smyrna Beach area of Florida has proved to be hugely successful for Jennifer who now manages just under 300 units and books nearly $6M in rental revenue annually.

In this episode, she tells her story of how that came about and shares some secrets to the success of her business.
