I'm happy to refer you to a company that helped setup mine.

Since it is explained clearly in the contract terms, (managing expectations there), the PM's initial response to the dispute was to reference that language.We found out about the dispute after the tenant had repeated her dispute 2x -- and the property mgmt asked us what we wanted to do.

Is that what you were referring to?

The best references I could find would be from the Federal Reserve Banks themselves. 

Appears that in Colorado you need a brokers license, which is what you were referring to.

Do you check Landlord references?

Cincinnati, and Northern KY (referred to ask Greater Cincinnati)These areas could be perfect for what you are looking for.

Quote from @Jed Butikofer: @Henry Clark When you say Texas property tax sales are you referring to land flipping?

@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.

You likely have connections and can get references.
