@Kim LeduffIn our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

But as someone who’s been in the trenches of real estate investing for almost 30 years, I continue to see some flaws.Some of the flaws I have witnessed are when tech-driven companies seem to lack backing from experienced underwriters or seasoned real estate professionals.

I have a robust team of mortgage lenders, title companies and RE attorneys.

Sadly, on BiggerPockets, some are quick to label companies as scams without real experience.

I am constantly reaching out to provide value to other wholesalers out there and in turn others see my company name. 

I have a local handyman that helped me hired junk removal company and pest control for the roaches.

But the deposits did go to an escrow company, not directly to the seller.

Look for your states offer to purchase contract online or contact a realtor to get a blank copy. review the agreement to be sure assignment is not expressly excluded. if there is nothing excluding assignment from the contract then writing the words "/And or Assigns" after the name or company's name on the buyer's line should be sufficient.Good luck!

If it is indeed less on the other estimates present it to the PM, if they are the same price then you know the PM probably did the same digging to find the right company for the job.

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.
