@Cosette TrantowThe hardest thing to do in business, in my opinion, is to remove someone when they aren't doing the job, or in your case, performing abysmally.

Don't forget to inspect at least once a year and never renew a tenant that performs poorly the previous year.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

There are always going to be some variability in performance.

You must occupy the residence within 60 days of closing and live in it as your primary residence for 12 months before renting out other units.Do this several times and you will have 3-4 performing (hopefully) 4 plexs (or tri or duplex) and then you can look at doing STRs.It would create a great base for you to work towards early retirement.
