What does it take to build a successful property management company while balancing business, family, and life?

In this episode of The Powers Playbook, Aaron Powers sits down with Michael Vasquez, co-owner of Lease Las Vegas, to talk about entrepreneurship, property management, real estate investing, and the challenges of running a business with your spouse.

Michael shares the story of how he transitioned from running his own business into helping grow Lease Las Vegas alongside his wife Shelby, and what it really looks like behind the scenes of managing rental properties and working with real estate investors.

The conversation also dives into building a rental portfolio, lessons learned from mentors in real estate, and the mindset required to run a business successfully.

Running a business while raising a family requires constant balance.

Michael shares how he and Shelby support each other while building their company, and why their long-term goal is creating more flexibility — allowing them to spend more time with their daughter while continuing to grow their business.

For many entrepreneurs, the ultimate goal isn’t just success in business — it’s building a life that allows them to be present for the moments that matter most.

One of the most important lessons discussed in this episode is making investment decisions based on data and research instead of emotion.

Understanding the true rental value of a property, working with experienced professionals, and having the right team in place can make the difference between a successful investment and a costly mistake.
