    This is exactly the kind of content I love to see on UA-cam! It's like getting a glimpse behind the scenes of a real car dealership. You've got a great balance of showing the fun parts of the job, like picking up new cars and checking out interesting properties, with the not-so-glamorous parts, like running around and dealing with repairs. Plus, your commentary is hilarious!

    As a rental Tennant I’d appreciate a landlord like you,
    We’ve lived in our current rental for 9 years now, and not a single thing has been done by the landlord, I spend money on it my self as I like a nice home, but could be asked to leave at any point. Keep doing what you do.

    Really enjoyable video as always Matt.
    I appreciate your approach towards both being a used car dealer, and being a property owner. You always seem honest, and have an attitude of ensuring that everything you sell is in a good condition and well prepared. Not only is this a great sign that you take pride in doing your work correctly to honour customers and to be an honest guy, from a business side I'm sure it saves a lot of the hassle that comes with doing things cheaply and to a poor standard. Any business or property owner should take note!
