Looking for a Property management company in Kansas City MO

[JP Modesto]

Hey Everyone! I have a Dilemma.  Im a 3 year out-of-state passive investor in the greater KCMO area.  Im on my 2nd Property Management and am looking for a good recommendation for a good PM who charges fairly.  My first PM was not pro-active in keeping my leases unto date and now my 2nd one is just charging incredibly too expensive.  

Im looking for a PM that I can grow with.  I currently have 29 units but would like to grow it to 2-3x more in the future.  My current PM itemizes every little repair and charges me for it and Im wondering if there are PM that charge per day and put a management fee on top of it.  I feel like the current PM penny-pinches charging me for every light bulb, door stop, and battery in smoke detectors changed.  

Would you chose a PM that is very large 800+ units or a smaller operation maybe half or less?

Any recommendations from experience would be greatly appreciated!
