Even with some people I believe are honest, I simply believe most do not properly analyze and manage risk, as is evident with nearly every syndication doing capital calls right now because they didnt properly plan for rising rates.Dave Van Horn however, along with his company PPR one of the few people I trust in the real estate space.

Now we are considering creating a Holding LLC that will be managed and owned by both of us.

My guess is there are some STR owners or managers genuinely unaware their current pricing exceeds the price gouging thresholds until it is brought to their attention.]Will PriceLabs and other dynamic pricing tools- respond quickly and appropriately to these issues?

If you don't want to manage the property at all, you are losing money on the management when small scale management is not hard at all with a little help.

Do you think purchasing a property in Philadelphia, PA, and managing it remotely from Westchester, NY (Roughly 2-2.5 hours away) with the help of a local handyman would be too much of a stretch?

Top 3 reasons owners hire PMCs:1) No time to manage correctly2) No time to learn how to manage correcly: laws, documents, processes, etc.3) They're too nice and need someone to "save them from themselves"A good PMC can usually earn their fees by better managing the property/tenant than the owner, thereby:1) Increasing owners net profit2) Decreasing owner's time commitment, stress, headaches, etc.No matter what though, you should always plan to commit a couple of hours a month to manage your PMC.

Would definitely recommend finding a partner who can help walk you through this if you decide to move ahead. 

Because of that I decided to exit the market as a co-host. 

Quote from @Josh Otero: Hi BP community, I know you've got some crazy tenant stories and I want to hear it.I'll go first:1) I was managing a 5 story apartment building and a dog fell off the 4th floor balcony because of the owner not paying attention.

@Andreas Mathews admirable, but make sure you do some research so you understand what a PM can make.Starting your own PMC business will require 75-150 doors to make a decent living, depending on gross rents and your fee structre.Working for a SFR PMC as a PM, will require a RE license and you usually get paid a percentage of the gross rents the portfolio of owners/properties you manage generates.
