times, adjust, and be patient. None of it is linear. But over time, the combination of a clear plan, better information, and consistency has made a real difference.

Thank you for trusting us with your home. We don’t take that lightly — and we’ll keep doing the work, even on the quiet days, because that’s what makes the biggest difference in the long run.

That idea — trusting the process even when it’s not glamorous — is something we think about a lot at RCW.

To planning the work and working the plan,

Good property management looks calm on the surface. When things are working well, it can feel almost invisible. But that’s not because nothing is happening. It’s because there is a process behind it: routine inspections, preventive maintenance, documentation, follow- ups, and decisions made long before a problem becomes obvious. Just like training, it’s not about reacting to every bad day or every unexpected issue. It’s about relying on experience, systems, and discipline to guide the work, even when everything seems fine. We don’t manage homes based on gut feel or short-term urgency. We manage them by trusting proven processes, constantly refining them, and sticking with them even when no one is watching. That’s how credibility is built. That’s how small issues stay small. And that’s how homes remain places of comfort rather than sources of stress. Every marathon I’ve trained for has taught me something new. And every property we manage reinforces the same lesson: Steady, thoughtful effort over time beats bursts of reaction every single time.

P.S. For anyone curious about the running side of this: My first marathon was a 3:45 (i.e., 3 hours and 45 minutes). The second was a 3:30. For the third, I was aiming for a 3:15 and came in at 3:22 — close, but not quite there (it got a lot rougher and slower after about mile 18). This training cycle, the goal is to actually break 3:15. Same process, a little smarter, hopefully a little faster. P.P.S. I want to give a quick shout-out to my sister-in-law Meg. She is the ultimate marathon cheer squad. When I turn the corner and hear her yelling for me (with or without her squad), it always puts a smile on my face and makes my feet a little lighter. Thank you, Meg.
