Ideas on finding a good Property Manager out of state?

It looks like my next purchase will be out of state. I know people in the industry in my home town, so it's not difficult to find a good property manager and stay on top of them. But finding a good property manager across the country will be more difficult. Does anyone have good suggestions for identifying a few good property managers in another city to interview? And then do you have suggestions for how to interview them?

    @JR Hinds 

    To continue what Azeez said...

    Go to IREM.org search for ARM certified property managers. Call 5 ask them what sides of the city they like/dislike and why. Ask what they see them selling for and what expenses are by category. Ask for market occupancy and rents. Ask if they know anything coming up for sale.

    You can also search narpm.org for the RMP (Residential Management Professional) and MPM (Master Property Manager) certified.
