Self managing out of state multi family?

[Jeff J.]

Presently I self manage 2 multi family properties. In two years I will be relocating to another state and I have interviewed a few property managers. However. With my cell phone I can continue to manage these properties anywhere in the world. The only thing missing is eyes and ears and in general boots on the ground. I have good caretakers so why don't I just train and empower them to do the things I cannot do once I have relocated? What am I missing? Has anyone else attempted this? What problems arise? Thanks Jeff
