Owner Occupy w/ Property Management?

[Brad Ball]

Has anyone ever owner occupied a multi-unit property while paying for a company to manage that same property? 

Swinging a hammer, unclogging toilets and knocking on doors for late rent isn't for everyone. And since all our properties should take property management into consideration financially while still producing cash flow (assuming that's a goal), the property should be able pay for it. Yes, you can save money by DIY but I'm interested in seeing if anyone's done it the other way.

Looking forward your thoughts or experience on this. Thanks!
