Meet The Team
Jay Shaw
General Manager
Jay leads the team at Welcome Home Management, however, he is the first one to give credit to the strong team who work along side of him. Without them, Welcome Home wouldn’t be where we are today, he tells investors on a regular basis.
Welcome Home Management was created in 2016 after Jay had one of those experiences you likely may have had with a property manager in the past. Like you, Jay was no different.
Jay wanted to do things differently. Much differently. He chose to focus on the investor and not himself. While building Welcome Home Management, Jay recalled this encounter with the property manager and all the other pain points that he’d had as an investor, and focused on correcting those for his clients.
At the end of the day, we want our investors to be profitable. If they are profitable, they are happy. It’s not rocket science, but a lot of property management companies lose sight of that simple fact.
Jay coaches investors on the fundamentals to look for when acquiring rental properties and works with investors every step of the way, not just when the deal closes. He further assists investors by working with them through the marketing, showing, and placement of qualified tenants in the property. Experience the Welcome Home difference.
