You'll let them break their lease and hand them cash.I manage 400 rentals.

Greetings BP community, I recently joined a national senior care living development team.

I want to remain local in NJ or at most drive down 1hr to PA (self-manage or, last resort, hire a PM)However, I must also consider maintaining reserves, a safety net for my primary home, and an emergency fund.It's just hard for a new investor now :(

I property manage STR in the cape cod so this is actually good info

I would also urge you to make sure you fully understand how they operate , A-Z (from how they make their profit to how many doors they are managing). 

We currently own/manage properties across a few states including Hawaii so we aren't new to managing short term/mid term rentals.

Then they will manage the contractor to make sure the work is done properly. 

Yes, I am looking for an online platform to begin self-managing too.

I recently bought a commercial condo (retail) and have been going through hoops with the seller (developer) to make changes to make the space ADA compliant. 

I had to relocate to Ohio to manage it.
