Has anyone used Doorstead as a property manager?

Hi BP fam,

I am considering using a PM to rent out a condo in Anaheim at least for the first year. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Doorstead. If you have, how was it? I've had two consultation calls with them and so far, the reps seem knowledgeable and their system seems streamlined and organized. However, some of their reviews online are not flattering. Mostly talking about the vendors they choose; but since they are tech based, I assume everyone they use is a third party contractor. They have two options, 6% monthly fee and 50% 1st month for tenant placement or 8% monthly with guaranteed rents. they don't offer option 2 in my area. But option one doesn't sound too bad. I'll still cash flow if everything works out okay. I've never self managed which is why I want them to help with the initial process.
