Can my neighbor be my property manager?
Is there anything to be careful of (legally) with paying my neighbors (that I trust) to be my property manager when I move out of my house hack?
To be clear, I have no intention of them being in charge of finding/screening tenants, managing leases or collecting rent. I only want to have them be responsible for things like landscaping, shoveling snow, being a handy man for minor maintenance issues around the house, etc. Everything else I plan to take care of from a distance.
I do not think I see any sort of issue with this, but want to make sure I know where the line is between what I can have them do, and what I would need a licensed professional PM for.
Thank you!
