First time so go easy!! (A couple of questions to break the ice!)

[Adam Departee]

howdy!

I am so excited to officially be apart of this community and am excited to dive in and learn. I've been doing a lot of listening and reading (got my copy of "The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low Money Down today!) for the last couple of weeks and now have some questions. Looking forward to your responses!!

I'm looking at buying something in the Michigan area (specifically in the Saint Clair Shores area) to rent out and my questions are as follows...

1. Any recommendations for property management companies?

2. I love spreadsheets and would really appreciate links to any you like beyond the ones on this site. 

3. If you had a time machine that would let you visit yourself right before your first deal, what advice would you give yourself?

thank you in advance for any feedback!! 

cheers!
