Consider your own path to financial freedom!
Consider joining the 1836 Property Management Team.
Matt Leschber, what can we say about him? Other than the fact that he built 1836 Property Management from the ground up as a Texas State Alum, starting from behind the desk of his home office? Or the fact that he can have an effective conversation with anyone, even Siri? Here’s a juicy tidbit about Mr. Leschber, he’s a typical Austinite who can’t have gluten. It’s true. So if you feel like broadening your knowledge on real estate investments, business development, writing textbooks on property management, sailing, flying planes, playing guitar or even preparing for an Ironman, give Matt a call and meet him for a flour-free treat on SoCo.
Erica has been with 1836 since July 2015. Before making her way to Austin, Erica lived in NYC where she danced her little heart out both professionally and at The Juilliard School. After 10 years in the Big Apple, she and her husband had enough of the cold winters and jumped at the chance to relocate to Austin for his work. This cat lover and three-time fantasy football champion is loving Texas and her 1836 family! On her downtime, you’ll find her chilling with her husband and two kitties, at the gym, or out exploring new restaurants/breweries. Don’t hesitate to give her a shout if you ever have any questions regarding property management, ballet, or need advice setting a fantasy lineup!
Melanie has been with us since March 2016! Starting out in small-town Huffman, TX and making her way to “Keep It Weird” Austin, Melanie now considers herself an Austinite like many others that have made their way to our part of the world. As an avid foodie, film buff, and feline/dachshund/rat enthusiast (yes, RAT!), Melanie is always in the know of what makes Austin unique. These well-acquired skills and secrets make her the hippest manager in town. If you ever need portfolio advice, or just want to check out the hot spots near your investment, Melanie Price is your girl. Beware, her hair will be a different color each time you see her!

Samantha, who goes by Sam, is our onboarding specialist! She was born and raised in the nearby town of Taylor, TX and attended college down the street from the 1836PM office at St. Edward’s university. Needless to say, she is used to driving at least 30 mins to get anywhere! Sam enjoys spending time with her boyfriend, family, friends, and her pets: Pickles the dog (named after her love of pickles), Gobbles the Turkey, and a handful of chickens. When she is not getting properties in tip top shape for our investors, she is usually at home (preferably), eating at her favorite places (Pluckers!), or finding a reason to go to Target or Sephora. If you haven’t guessed yet, yes, she’s a Taurus. So if you need someone to affirm your need to relax, treat yourself to a shopping spree or a meal at your favorite restaurant, Sam is your girl!
