Then you can consider researching and finding something that meets your needs better.

If I were you and you need to meet the requirement of working under a Broker, just make sure your agreement with the broker allows you to take all your properties with you once you leave, obtain your brokers license and start your own brokerageI would also start looking at software systems and joining the National Association of Residential Property Managers.

You're likely better off attending your local REI meet-up to see if you can find an investor who has house-hacked or is currently house-hacking their primary home.

Realistically, one checking account and an accounting system will meet all your needs and keep your business better organized than 7+ bank accounts.If you want to collect bank interest from excess cash, add a savings account.

When a builder builds a new house that meets my requirements, in my price range, I move out of my duplex and into that new house. 

I also advise participating in regular meetings with them.

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

All the best.Got it and I see that you have scheduled a meeting on my calender.
