Once you’ve made all of the rookie mistakes and have your SOPs in order, you can go invest out of state with a game plan.

@Amol KulkarniRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

That's how you gain the information you need to AVOID MISTAKES.

I think I might have made a mistake moving here.... lol

A PMC can get a bad reputation really fast and be forced to use only the WORST contractors that are unreliable hacks. 

They are the worst company to deal with ever.I then asked a few other real estate attorneys and their response was the same.The negative reviews shared are exactly what happened to me.In addition i have personally had over 100 loans in my lifetime.
