Being that I'm new to it, though, I'd appreciate hearing unique experiences from anyone with valuable information to share.Thanks!

I merely provide good information and good answers.

This information is very helpful. 

@Nathan NoorlunRecommend 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.

The information contained in this post is not to be relied upon.

Feel free to connect with me if you'd like more information on how they can support your needs.
