Annelise A. Property Management Companies?

I will tell you from the deepest depths of my soul that I can't stand property management.You ought to here the horror stories I hear from my sellers when I list their properties.Managing is a very tough business.I think where many investors go wrong is they try to be CHEAP in paying a manager.When they buy that 1st house they believe that collecting rent will be easy.When they find out it is much more intensive than thought they now look for a manager.The problem is they didn't take this into consideration when buying and now will have a cash flow problem.So they then try to find the cheapest person possible.YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.What buyers should do is say I am going to manage myself but just in case that doesn't work out I have already priced a PM company into my offer to buy this property.This is what happens to people who don't plan enough for a fix and flip and they get stuck with a rental and a nightmare to deal with.You have to plan upfront as much as possible so that you mitigate the risk as much as possible of problems happening.For houses many brokers/agents look at it as good side income but it is not a huge paycheck for them.As soon as sales pick up they could care less.Why does everyone let themselves get locked into a 1 year contract with no provisions??
