@Christian M.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.

@Kay Nemen you're making typical rookie mistake of ASSUMING that all PMCs provide the same services and EXECUTE those services exactly the same way.You're solely focusing on costs instead of HOW their PROCESSES will effectively manage your investment.So, you'll get exactly what you pay for - good or bad.

If your agent makes a mistake or gives bad advice, they're insured and you have protection.
