These companies selling products tend to drain agents dry at these conventions selling every do dad that is supposed to give them an edge over everybody else.

Personally, I find BTRs to be more predictable with fewer ongoing maintenance issues, and they tend to attract high-quality tenants.

As an investor, comps tend to harm you more than help.

Things just require more ongoing expenses percentage wise out of state because you have to pay people to do everything for you and you will have a longer time building relationships with vendors even when getting decent referrals. 

I am no way affiliated or benefit from these referrals, just like to pass along good business!    

You can ask if anyone in your network has a referral or had a good experience.

Find one that can be custom to your needs, has flexible pricing, no long-term, high-cost memberships, and excellent customer services to determine how to best market to your leads.If you would like a referral code or more information please let me know :)

Property Managers come in all shapes and sizes, I tend to recommend seeking a medium size local company. 

Companies tend to do well when they professionally respond to negative posts, and either provide their version of events and stand their ground, or do what it takes to turn the angry poster into an ally.

Instead of shelling out $60K for a $250K deal, maybe some of you can help me figure out (or give referrals) to title companies, etc, or give overall advice how to save me money from this enormous financial endeavor (closing the deal).Thanks!
