Join us for our next OREIO event on Nov 11th 2026!

Have you ever watched an Action Takers session and wondered how they achieved that? MEMBERSHARE is your chance to dive deeper into the lessons learned - both from successes and setbacks - in real estate, in a meaningful, in-depth conversation with fellow members. Join us on Nov 11th and hear from:

Chelsey Fawcett & Jasmine Bhathena - The Deal We Didn't Buy: What Our Mobile Home Park Deal Taught Us About Due Diligence

Chelsey and Jasmine share a candid look at their recent experience underwriting and ultimately walking away from a manufactured home community acquisition. While getting an offer accepted felt like a major milestone, the due diligence process revealed critical gaps, from missing leases and unverified financials to aged municipal water infrastructure that pointed toward significant capital exposure. Rather than a highlight reel of a closed deal, this session is a practical walkthrough of how due diligence plays out on the ground - covering real-world challenges of financing smaller parks, navigating seller psychology with family-held assets, and establishing a rigorous three-way match between leases, bank collections, and general ledgers. Attendees will leave with five transferable lessons on protecting capital, vetting operations through direct conversations, and recognizing why walking away professionally is a key part of long-term real estate investing.

Jozsef Petroczi - What Tenants, Toilets, and Tough Calls Taught Me About Building Real Wealth

Property management is where real estate wealth is built — or quietly destroyed. Most investors obsess over the deal: the acquisition price, the cap rate, the closing. But what happens after the keys change hands is what separates those who build lasting portfolios from those who burn out and sell.

In this candid MEMBERSHARE session, Jozsef pulls back the curtain on years of hands-on property management experience — sharing the real stories, real numbers, and real mistakes. This is not theory. This is what was learned when a burst pipe turned a $6,000 planned repair into a $14,000 emergency, when a improperly screened tenant cost months of lost income and thousands in damages, when a contractor disappeared mid-job with a deposit, and when a legal misstep nearly turned a routine situation into a costly liability.

This session delivers seven hard-earned property management lessons. Whether you self-manage a single duplex or oversee a growing portfolio, these lessons apply. They are practical, immediately actionable, and drawn entirely from real experience — both the wins and the painful setbacks. Attendees will walk away with a clear framework for running a tighter, more profitable, and more sustainable property management operation — and the confidence that comes from learning from someone else's expensive mistakes instead of making your own.
