We do the book keeping and self manage our properties.  

Finally, any advises or tools on how to better manage the development process, track expenses and monitor budget?

I have seen a lot of discussions on other PM software (Buildium, Propertyware, Property Manager, Appfolio, Yardi). 

I'm meeting with a couple agents i was referred to through my network and am wondering what critical questions I should be asking them to understand if they are the right partners for me in this market, especially considering I will be managing this investment from the other side of the country, and what info I should be prepared to provide to them.

We're self-managing our properties and working over the next few weeks to get them market-ready.

My partner and I are looking to get our next rental (currently have one in a more local market that has a property manager).  

I also self manage.  

If you ever need help running numbers or managing your property. 

Hi everyone, Currently working as a construction manager in Texas, always had ambitions of owning my own business.

Who will manage it for you?
