PM or let others do arbitration on my properties for MTR

[Nhi Nguyen]

I have a some properties in the Bay Area - CA (Hayward, San Leandro, and Pleasant Hill) that I’m leaning heavily towards MTR instead of LTR. All of them are very close to hospitals (2-10 mins max).

Some are ready right away, some in 3-6 months.

I’ve been self managing my small portfolio of LTR but I’d like to be hand off more so I can scale.

My options are to either let someone arbitrate my properties, or hire PM companies to manage them for me.

Please share your thoughts. I don’t have any experience doing either yet, nor I’ve done any “quick numbers” to compare. It’s in the planning phrase so inputs are highly appreciated.

Thanks.
