@Jim Coleman Recommend 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.

Even still, it could be said that I've still lost money due to my time on the tools instead of prospecting as a real estate agent (the cost of lost opportunity).If you can truly do 80%-90% of the work yourself (at acceptable quality levels) and you aren't sacrificing your time where you can get better returns for your efforts, then yes, it can work even up here in Canada.

Quote from @Tony Pellettieri: It's been a long 9 months but the time seems right to climb out from the trenches and return to the BP community.During my first few months as a Real Estate Investor, I was on the forums almost daily.

Go to an attorney specializing in Texas real estate transactions who can set the whole thing up - if the attorney you're using is not familiar with the optimal ways to insure wraps you're using the wrong attorney.
