Thanks Phillip. I did research the BP recommendation and only one was suggested for Jackson and that was Evernest. Unfortunately their recent reviews leave alot to be desired. Appreciate your help...somehow I will get it figured out. Thanks and Happy Holidays!

@Gloria Grotjan Try searching within BiggerPocket’s! They offer search function for members looking for property managers.

In addition to BP, try searching through local NARPM chapters; national association of residential property managers. Most reputable and professional PMs are heavily affiliated with their local NARPM chapter. Find the local NARPM chapters website and you’ll find an entire list of PMs.

If you need immediate assistance and you’re out of state, I would consider calling Evernest. They’re a national chain with a regional office in Jackson and offer very competitive rates.

@Ashley Kehr - Thanks. I did check BP recommendation only one listed for Jackson and their recent reviews are terrible. I think the handyman suggestion is probably the way to go but nervous with no one to supervise the work being done. I will get it figured out. Thanks again.

My current property manager has all but abandoned my rental in South Jackson. Lessons learned - she was new to setting up her own mgmt company and I gave her a chance but have had continuous issues over the past year. Right now the property is empty due to non paying tenant that had to be evicted. House needs alot of work due to tenant damages. Looking for minimal cleanup on this house to get in marketable shape and move on.

Any assistance or recommendations appreciated.

Tagging @Dave Poeppelmeier - Hi Dave, do you have a recommendation for an electrician that could give me an estimate for some electrical problems at my rental home in Toledo? I currently have a property mgr but looking for an outside referral. Thanks in advance.

@Steve Garcia - Thank you for the info. I think marketing is the key before you even get started with a home at least thats what I'm seeing from various comments and also Youtube videos.

Does anyone have experience with owning/managing sober living houses? I’m looking at a portfolio of three homes, buying both the buildings and the business. Quick analysis yields a 16% cap rate, just wondering if anyone has experience with logistics In running these places, paying staff, rent collection, etc. Thanks!

Did you encounter any issues with neighbors or the city?

Hi Amanda,

I recently converted a mid-term rental into a Sober Living. I am the Owner/Operator. The home just opened and I have 2 residents in place. Biggest challenge is to network to build relationships with rehab facilities, detox centers, IOP/PHP clinics. I have a live in house manager that is also in recovery. House managers typically are offered free rent, but I am charging half until the house is filled. There are policy and procedures in place. House rules, meeting requirements, and chore's to mentions a few.

@Steve Garcia first, LOVE that you're doing this! Curious what made you decided to operate the house yourself instead of Oxford House or another tenant organization who specializes in this?

Thanks Jared! My son is battling addiction which is where I discovered what a sober living home is. I wanted to open and operate my own to serve the need in my community to help bridge those gaps between families. I am in hopes he will join me in this venture.

Just curious if you've started the process of opening your first home and how thats going? Looking at opening a home this year in California but in the research stage and trying to learn from others.

These can be difficult to finance just an FYI. I know for DSCR especially, lots of lenders don't like sober homes unless there's truly no medical services offered.

Key is to just mention it as an investment property
