@Greg Kasmer i have not, im a new investor in the commercial and assumed due to my lack of experience it would be an issue

I’m also based here and have experience with short-term rentals, property management, and work with investors like yourself.

I work with these two:Metro Detroit Property Management - Mark HutterNHL Property management - Howard GenserThere are a tonne of companies and each one has had good and bad experiences, so no one in particular stands out.One part of the equation is that the Detroit market itself is a tough place and is not for the novice investors.Only seasoned and large volume Investors make it successful in Detroit.
