The utility company doesn't manage your property...they provide paid services until they're not paid anymore. 

I liked Ron’s 20+ year asset/construction management and investment background.

I don't want to be tied to Furnished Finder exclusively for MTR management. 

I am looking to connect with the investors there as the promotors are continuing to take Asset Management fees to the tune of $450K a year (on top of PM fees) even when their payout to the investors is around $20K a quarter (not meeting preferred) and the overall fund is negative about $450K.

Good luck  Total Rents Collected: $23,025/mo Debt Service: $12,358/mo (sad for me. 8% interest rates lol) Property Management 10%: $2,303/moReserves (Vacancy 5%, Maintenance 10%): $3,454/moPhantom Cash Flow: $8,365/moTrue Cash Flow: $4,911/mo (Money I can legit burn)  bob as you probably know I owned a few hundred of these types of homes from DetroitCleveland to Jackson ms  Birmingham balt city etc etc.  

The current one lasted 8 years and needs to be replaced (as per what our property manager is saying)I heard front loaders could leak, so I typically only do top loaders for rentals.

I'm going to try leasing the place out myself again, but if I'm struggling, I will hire property manager. 

At this time I manage and renovate majority of all my units to keep cost low but most likely not the best use of my time although I'm skilled at it.

Spending a ton on property management doesn't seem like the best move.

Joking aside, we do believe Lima is a great market to invest in, and we will continue to grow here in both units we own and units we manage!
