@Kevin GrinsteadIn our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.

The subjects are on point along with the guest speakers that share their good and challenge experiences, after all we are here to learn, and making mistakes are part of the process.I’m original from Lima - Peru (bilingual of course), but I’ve been living in the USA for 24+ years. 

Don't worry, you're not the first, nor will you be the last, to make this mistake with hoa auctions.

I made the mistake of letting them stay.

Also the last 2 year we used them , we need to recheck the draft as there're always mistakes either the deductible number or my company spelling!. 

It is a common mistake that I see often, so I don't fault you for it.

For others 55 is just around the corner from "scared to make mistakes". 

Cash flow works for sure as well however you need numbers for it to make sense and you need a very strong team and in the cash flow markets the mistake most investors make is shopping by returns.. you can buy in nicer areas of the "cash flow" markets you dont have to chase yeild and you can have a much better outcome every city has its nicer area.. invest there .. then you have simple logic..

Hope this saves you from making that mistake! 

Landlords make simple mistakes, lose a ton of money, kill themselves with stress, and then give up.If you learn to manage a property well, you will see true success.
