In this episode, Dana Dunford, Co-founder and CEO of Hemlane, joins the show to discuss the evolving landscape of property management for self-managing real estate investors. Hemlane is a venture-backed platform that simplifies rental property management by offering tools for inspections, repairs, tenant coordination, and more, all in one place. Dana shares how Hemlane differentiates itself from traditional property management by blending human oversight with technology, catering to a market where 72% of landlords self-manage their properties. 

We also explore how she achieved early traction at Hemlane by leveraging her personal network, testing creative messaging, and focusing on product-led growth. Dana emphasizes the importance of a balanced approach between technology and personal interaction, particularly as AI becomes more prevalent in real estate. 
 
This is a must listen for early-stage founders in the proptech space and those wanting to know what the next iteration for landlord software looks like.
