Pro's and Con's of starting a career in Property Management

[Ryan Knutson]

Hello Everyone,

I am currently working in RE sales in MN and have been considering making a transition into Property Management. My reason for making the transition is that I eventually want to own single family rentals and small multifamily properties and feel that working in PM will give me a strong foundation to learn the business of owning and running rentals as I begin my own investing career. I am looking to hear peoples experience in working in PM. The pro's as well as the con's of the career. I think it would be very helpful to hear from someone who is in the business who can give me a real account of what they like and don't like about being in PM. If anyone has any input at all, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

Ryan
