In our experience, the #1 mistake landlords make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.

Learn what a good tenant looks like, then learn how to screen people so you can select good tenants.

After doing that I would be more careful in your underwriting on deals and market selection.

The on the left side, select "Schedule E Wks" and then check box "G" (other passive exceptions)."

You have to be very selective of the sub market you want to be in.

Can we select any of them?

Therefore, it's imperative to conduct thorough due diligence when selecting a company to facilitate your financing.

Now, if this coach is going to co-GP your deal, bringing their balance sheet to secure a loan, investor connections to help raise the money, asset management skills, broker connections, etc to actually get a deal done, then maybe that is worth the share of profit, but most guru's I hear about are available for questions you bring to them, and put you through a generic course, typically with market selection information, basic underwriting education, etc.
