Residential property management business -start up

[Mildred Johnson]

Hello all, I'm a Realtor here in Houston, Texas. I am also the sole owner of a full service brokerage. Of course, I do have a broker working alone side of me. I've been managing my own and a few other investor's residential properties for a few years now. I even started in the apartment management industry backnowledge in 2006 up until I became a Realtor in 2013. I would like to expand my company into a full-time residential property management company. There are many other companies in my area who I'd have to compete with, so having the best foundational knowledge before hand I believe is definitely the most important element to my success. My question is do anyone of you have any advice, know of any books/websites/bloggers, know of any mentors here in the Houston area, or just have any comments to offer to myself and others in my position?

Hi Mildred Johnson . My name is Elias and I am on board of the Houston chapter of NARPM. I have a property management company here and I truly wished I had been a part of NARPM much earlier.

We meet once a month on the 3rd Thursday of the month, currently at Willie G's on Post Oak. Send me a PM and I can give you more details. We are mostly Property Managers and vendors that support our industry. Hope to see you there.
