Do you call your property manager from time to time?

[Michael Stole]

Hi, BPers, Hope all had a wonder Christmas! I have been away for a while, and I did notice a lot changes of the forums when i came back. Well, a quick question I would like to hear your thought about is: do you, as a landlord, contact your property manager from time to time? And if so, what do you ask about each time when you call. I still have a property back in indianapolis, and have don't hear from my property manager for about half a year, except an email each month telling that the rent is deposited into my account.

I consider my PM to be very good.  But I still have to manage my manager.  You should too.  I wouldn't necessarily call just for the sake of calling, but you need to always thoroughly review your statements, and contact your PM with any questions, concerns, or instructions.
