I used to supervise many of these types when I was in the military myself so I guess while I understand how they get sucked in to it all, I just wish they could see what they are doing to themselves.

Most supervising brokers can handle that.

This delayed the aforementioned demo for nearly 4 months due to surveys, asbestos lab reports, and specialized removal.

I had a lab/wolf mix for years and 3 Great Pyrenees now.

If you can't get in there, any kid that mowes lawns could do that for you with supervision.

Only that they have the authorization to hire, supervise and discharge services and independent contractors for repairs/maintenance necessary.I'm relatively new to rental ownership (3 years) so I suppose this goes with the learning curve.

It remains the investor's responsibility to "supervise" the PM.It's a lot easier to become a 'local' expert regarding good/bad neighborhoods, rental rates, property prices, etc. in your own back yard - then it is to gain the same expertise in a strange place.Again I disagree.

If it's going to cause you and your family grief if you are away supervising the eviction and changing out the locks on Christmas Eve, then wait.

You can expect to pay anywhere from 300/hr for newer staff (under supervision of a partner) or as much as 1,000/hr for direct access to a partner.

All those no lifeguard on duty, no children without parent supervision, how to provide CPR, etc..
