Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone here would be able to suggest a reliable investor friendly property management company to manage a duplex located in Central Florida (Mt. Dora area).

Thank you,

CP

All,

What a wonderful welcome! Thank you to @Joshua Lyon, @Dave Visaya, @John Rogers, @Thomas Franklin, @Andrew Davis, @Suzanne Mark, @Patrick O'Sullivan and @Sonja Gordon

@Thomas Franklin that is some really thorough suggestion; much appreciated.

Although I have not been active on the BP website, I have tried to be active in the outside world. I opted to search for either SFH or duplexes for a buy and hold strategy. I obtained a pre-qual letter and through a realtor we visited many properties over the last few months and put offers on several. I am currently under contract for a duplex in Central FL, vacant, needing minimum work and that I look forward to rent soon. I will definitely look into the option of purchasing it with an LLC for liability protection (see @Thomas Franklin) and I will search for a reliable property mgmt. company (see @John Rogers). Any suggestion for a property mgmt. company is welcome at this stage.

Thanks again for the warm welcome.

HI Dan,

I never bought any deal from them, but I receive emails from Altura Investment Realty and EquityPro. I spoke with one rep from EquityPro and he was knowledgeable, in addition to having a few good deals. Again, not direct experience but I thought about suggesting these two to you.

Best of luck,

CP

Hi All,

I have been listening for months to every single BP podcast on my commute to work and finally have decided to introduce myself to the community. I do not pursue RE investing for financial freedom as I love my job and what I do, but I am interested in supplementing my income and net worth with active RE investing.

I live in Central Florida but work all over the state and I am always available to meet new people and discuss about common RE interests. 

Looking forward to a growing network!

Regards,

Carlo Pilia
