Quote from @Roger Garner: I don't have any recommendations, but I can provide you a guide for screening and selecting a quality PM.

Others work with rehabbers across the country so you have some selection on location.Turnkey rentals are an easy way to get going, but the returns are typically not as good as if you found and managed the rehab on your own. 

More demand equals less TI, rent abatement, or other LL concessions to provide when a vacancy does occur, so select accordingly.

The local store may have a limited selection but you can find more sizes and options on their website.The tenant may very well trash them, but they are inexpensive and can easily be replaced with the deposit.

Sounds like you have selected a PM that may not be fully hands on.

Are there any unique challenges or opportunities?
