I've saved your information in case I decide to hire a property manager.

I think it's time for a new hire!

Grow by managing properties yourself or hiring a professional, and focus on growth potential.Good luck!

If this is an insurance claim the process is very different than hiring a roofer during normal circumstances.  

The biggest challenge is that the person hiring the mentor or coach does not have clarity on what they want and even worse, they don't know what they expect. 

So for example, if I am already getting $10K settlement check, I would like to hire a PA for additional claims.

So my advice: understand your market and local regulations, avoid the average cookie cutter STR home, make your home STAND OUT and be aware of the significant upfront cost needed to do so, and absolutely hire a local PM company.

If you do them, then make sure you are hiring a vetted professional.

They hire the so-called investor-friendly realtor and they start bad mouthing all realtors.

Avoid anything with condo association fees or homeowner association fees as they DECREASE CASH FLOW with no real contribution to the bottom line.Lastly, since you are new, when you do get a property DO NOT HIRE A PROPERTY MANAGER.
