Should I use same person as both realtor and property manager?

[Xiaoyi Yu]

Hi Fellow BP members,

I have a realtor who helped me on my first Buy & Hold out of state property and I quite like him. He has his own real estate company which also does property management, so I went ahead to use him as my property manager after closing.

Do you guys have any experience using same person as realtor and property manager? Maybe I am still too new, but I rarely heard of people doing this on BP podcast and book. It is definitely convenient communication wise, but I am not sure if one person can perform multiple roles well at the same time? It's like primary care doctor vs specialist.

I am looking forward to build my team so that I can do BRRRR in the future, so do you recommend me hiring different people as realtor and PM?
