Miami, Florida (Hexa PR Wire — October 15, 2025) —
Nathan Miller, founder and CEO of Rentec Direct, joined The Michael Peres Podcast to discuss how a spare-time coding project grew into one of the largest independent property-management software platforms in the U.S. The episode reviewed his transition from managing a few rentals to building a SaaS that supports thousands of property managers and more than 600,000 units—without outside funding.
Miller outlined how bootstrapping shaped a culture of efficiency and long-term thinking, the lessons from balancing a full-time tech role while launching a company, and why lean, independent ownership influenced product decisions and customer support. He also discussed how software can remove friction in real-estate operations by automating routine work and improving accuracy at scale.
