So I have an out of state rental, that I am considering doing my own property management on. I currently have a PM taking care of it but I really really don't like them, plus I wound't mind the experience for when I have more rentals. So to those of you in the same situation, how do you handle the walk through and documenting things? I want to be able to walk the property to check on the place and things like smoke detectors, or when the tenants move but I can't just drive 1600 miles whenever they decide to?  What would/do you do in this situation?

Thank you all for the kind welcome, and great starting points. I greatly appreciate it!

Hello my name is Joshua Allen. I'm still brand new to the whole real estate game. I currently own one property in Colorado Springs, CO that is a rental. I am hard at working trying to find a second property.

I  currently live in Savannah, Georgia area. I am very excited to learn from the wealth of knowledge that is BiggerPockets and hopefully some local investors!

I currently have a full time job that I would like to trade in for my own business in the near future! I am looking to get started into house flipping, mostly so I can raise capital to get into the buy and hold market as that is my ultimate goal!
