@Kelsey Vander Meulen why not hire a PMC to manage two of the units and you DIY manage the 3rd?

My main goal in pursuing the person was not to recoup for damages, but instead to hold him accountable in some way.Not wanting to throw good money after bad, I went the DIY approach to filing suit. 

We have a very good relationship with them, and we have access to the full PPM's, investor kits, and executive summaries.

They take on the responsibility of tenant communication, emergencies, and paperwork, which can otherwise be overwhelming for individual property owners.The Challenges of DIY Property ManagementWhile many investors choose to manage their own properties, it comes with its set of challenges.

I'm not so much a DIY type when it comes to legal matters so I am looking for an experienced attorney who specializes in tax foreclosures - ideally in that county.

I'm a very DIY investor and I want to invest in a good painting set up.

We also wouldn't recommend trying to DIY manage.Most S8 tenants will be Class C and Class C properties are extremely difficult to manage remotely!

Save every penny you make, live with room mates, drive a beat up truck, house hack distressed properties and spend all of your spare time DIY rehabbing them.

@Brandon Weis when it comes to PMCs, you'll find two main camps here on BP:1) Hardcore DIY landlords that think & promote EVERYONE should DIY manage. - Many are okay and actually understand DIY PM is not for everyone, but there are some that only have negative comments about PMCs.2) Owners & PMCs that promote hiring professionals.- Some PMC members are only here to promote themselves and don't offer much of value.

@Yixiong Panin our opinion, it depends on the Property Class/Tenant.Class A: most people can DIY manage and learn what they need to know on the fly.Class B: A bit harder, takes more time and there's more risk with maintenance and tenants.Class C: should only be attempted by EXPERIENCED landlords!
