Hi Jacob.I will give you a couple of major thoughts being a professional property manager for 25 years.1)  Select a company that does annual property management only (as opposed to a real estate company that does sales and property management).2)  Make sure your agent/ property manager does it full time (as opposed to looking after your property after they have taken care of all their sales first)3)  The management company should be a active member of NARPM or IREM. 

This preparation demonstrates foresight and professionalism, making your proposal more compelling.That said, do NOT allow yourself to get stuck in preparation mode.
