Moving away from property management

[Anurag Pulla]

Hey everyone! I am new to bigger pockets and relatively new to real estate investing in general. I have two rentals in the outskirts of Atlanta, GA and I am using a property management to manage these. After joining biggerpockets I realized we can self manage these with rentredi etc.
I am paying my property manager almost 80% of first month rent for new lease + 8% of monthly rent, I realized this is a lot and that most of what they do can be easily done with enough knowledge.

I am looking for suggestions if moving away and doing this myself is actually a good idea. My leases are coming to an end and I don't even know if its easy to get out of their contract.

Any inputs on this would be highly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.
