Piecemealing Property Management from Out of State

[Dan Shelhamer]

I am a Buy & Hold Investor and currently have 6 properties in the Northern Suburbs of Chicago (Lake County).  I will be moving to Phoenix in spring-summer of 2018, and am wondering how I will handle the management of these properties from afar.  I currently have a great handyman who is very responsive, and also my realtor will show my properties when their are vacancies.  I believe that I will try to manage my properties from Arizona since I seem to have a team that will be able to fit my needs.  I just don't see why I should pay a PM 8-10% to make the phone calls to the people that I already have in place.  I am looking for input & advice from any landlord's and/or property managers out there who might see something that I am missing.  Thanks!
