ESA Update: What You Need to Know About the Administration's Attempts to Remove Protections
<p>The headlines made it sound like HUD killed emotional support animal protections and landlords can finally charge pet fees and say no. The reality is more complicated, and acting on the headline could land you in a lawsuit. In this episode I break down what actually changed at the federal level and what didn't.

WWPMJD? Vol. 3
<p class="isSelectedEnd">On this episode of Hold It with PM Jen, I'm bringing you another real-life What Would PM Jen Do? conversation.</p> <p>Jamie Anderson, a realtor and investor, came to me with a tenant situation that had gone from frustrating to unsustainable. What started as late rent payments evolved into suspected drug use, unauthorized occupants, and a difficult decision about whether it was time to take the property back.</p> <p>Together, we talk through lease enforcement, landlord boundaries, risk management, and the challenge of balancing compassion with good business decisions. It's a real, unfiltered look at how investors and landlords navigate difficult situations when there are no easy answers.</p> <p>---<br /> ABOUT THE SHOW<br /> <br /> Hold It with PM Jen is the podcast for buy and hold real estate investors who want to grow a portfolio and hold it for the long haul.

WWPMD? Vol. 2
<p>In this episode of Hold It With PM Jen, we are back for Part 2 of What Would PM Jen Do, picking up right where we left off and diving into more real landlord questions with real answers, the way I always do, straight, practical, and based on what actually happens in the field. Kristin is still with me and we're working through the messy real world decisions property owners face every day, from selling tenant occupied homes to handling tricky lease situations.<br /> <br /> We talk about why some sales go smoothly while others fall apart depending on how tenants are handled, plus the real impact of pets, rent adjustments, and weak lease language. I also break down security deposits, damage disputes, and why documentation and consistency matter more than emotions or "good intentions."<br /> <br /> At the end of the day, this is about protecting your investment while staying fair and consistent. Feelings are going to come up, tenants are going to ask for exceptions, and situations are going to change but your job is still to run it like a business, not a charity.<br /> <br /> ---<br /> ABOUT THE SHOW<br /> <br /> Hold It with PM Jen is the podcast for buy and hold real estate investors who want to grow a portfolio and hold it for the long haul.
