My fiancé and I are looking to buy our first short term rental property.

@Sean Overcrest Transferring the property to an LLC may help avoid property tax reassessment under California’s Proposition 13, but it comes with risks.

@Stephanie SelbyRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I live outside of Charlotte in a small town called Denver (of the East).

In your instance, as the owner of the property you can have a direct non-licensed employee to perform property management.

I have 3 rental properties (5 doors total) with M&M Property Pros.

I've been looking at some properties and before I get started, I wanted to know does anyone have any reputable General Contractor/Contractor along with property manager in Columbus, GA because I haven't had much of luck in that department yet?

I can't even access all of my old property reports that I created with the calculator in the past couple months without upgrading to BP Pro.

I wanted to see if there were any recommendations on good management companies, and ones to avoid.Did a bit of research on my own and came across R&L property management.

Hi @Aloysius Martis - I'm not use how immediate your need is, but I'll be launching my property management company October 1st.
