Thanks David! With the paid leads you receive, is it a cold outreach? Like, are you giving them a call/ letter/ email, etc out of the blue?

For both the client has reached out with interest = so not really a cold lead. We typically will call and then follow up with emails if necessary

Thanks David!

Hey everyone!

My partners and I have been managing our rentals for years very successfully, I am looking to start a PM company in Florida.

I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on ways to successfully gain properties to manage.

@Ryan Cleary believe you need a real estate broker's license to manage properties you don't own in Florida.

You are correct Drew.

I am curious if anyone has suggestions. I am an agent with Keller Williams, they do not allow property management. I am sitting for my broker license but I don't plan on leaving KW.

I have wanted to start a PM company for a while. What are some ways I can navigate this situation with keeping my position at KW and starting a management company?

Quote from @Kim Meredith Hampton:

Hi Ryan,

Congrats on building your portfolio. First thing is that you will need a Florida Real Estate License, then join a brokerage for two years, after the two years you can get your Brokers License and open your own company. Florida Law requires that you work underneath a Broker for two years before you can open your own.

It would be good to ask around and interview a few brokers and see if you can operate under a Broker and are able to take all of your accounts with you after two years.

Joining the National Association of Residential Property Managers is also a great way to expand your knowledge, network with other professional property managers, obtain more training and education and find every vendor under the sun to make your property management successful. I am actually one of the past State Presidents of Florida.

Best of luck

Thank you Kim, I am currently a a realtor and am sitting for my brokers exam shortly.

I am a bit unclear on the red tape. The brokerage I currently work for does not allow property management. Does a property management company have to be a registered brokerage? I was thinking that as long as I have my brokers license then I would be able to start a PM company.

Is there a simple way to navigate this?

Thanks for the reply Maranda!

If you don't mind me asking, how do you market your services?

I suppose my main concern would be wasting money on marketing that is not going to move the needle
