Networking with Project Managers

[Jackson Pontsler]

I overheard a collegue say they have found deals working with property managers as they help their clients unload inventory.  

Has anyone had any experience with this they would be willing to share?  

How is it best to approach a property management company to ask them inform you when opportunties are avaliable?

I have an idea of talking to them about me purchasing the property and would allow them to continue to act as the property manager but don't know if this the best option or if this is against a common company policy.
