Monica Gilroy is the founder of the Gilroy Law Firm and a legal powerhouse in the property management space.

In this episode, she shares what to do if ICE shows up, how to bulletproof your application process, and why short leases are fine (if your systems are solid). We also dive into lawsuits, insurance gaps, and why you can say no to Section 8 in some markets (if you do it right).

If you’ve ever felt legally exposed running your PM biz, this episode brings clarity - and a few fun “ask me how I know” moments.
