@Dwight HenningRecommend 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.

I had just mastered the original deal analysis and was getting comfortable analyzing deals.  I love the more detailed analysis but I'm overwhelmed.  Any advice?  Many thanks!

I'm a Real Estate Broker/Owner and I own 5 doors that I have been self-managing as MTRs for the past 5 years.

This also leads owners to ASSUME simpler is better when it comes to management contracts.

@Kyle McVay I self-managed my first 5 units and then transferred all new units to a PM.
