Finding a property management company that you can trust with your investment can be a weight off of your shoulders and provide "mailbox" money to you without you having to lift a finger (except for when you have to grab that money from the mailbox).The cost of property management services varies, but any great trustworthy property management company can outweigh the cost substantially by providing you with time-saving services that handle the day-to-day operations of owning a rental investment property.

I think if you explore the team option, you will find it can give you what you want without much of the overhead on your shoulders.

Instead, bring up different things that you are ready to do and then commit to doing it with no intention other than the ability to rub shoulders/learn.

Twinkle angels sitting on your shoulder giving advice? 

Hello everyone,Long time member, first time poster.It’s a long story and I’m writing this on my phone so I’ll skip some parts.Current residents in one of my units are not actually on a lease (mom is on lease but moving out leaving daughter there etc)I’ve already talked to them letting them know we will need to have a new lease signed with everyone living there to be on it.During our conversation, it was mentioned that one of them will be having a surgery soon and will be in a wheelchair for a while.They requested I add a ramp to the house (this is a double width mobile home).So my question is, do I have to add the ramp?

They mow the two mounds of grass at the front entrance but don’t mow the entire width along the Main Street, I get zero benefit from the $800/yr and frankly am fed up. 

To me 10% of rents to PM seems like it would be a weight off my shoulders, but I also have trouble justifying the expense for the limited amount they do when things are going smoothly. 

@Nikita Sharma not yet but it passed at the end of Aug just before rent was due so we'll see how Oct goes, I agree proof should be required and the legislature should not make citizens shoulder the responsibilities of others without compensation.

Here’s what to expect:" width="100% !

Furthermore, the advice about what I should do even if it doesn't meet the 1% rule took a lot of weight off my shoulders. average rent from the last three comps comp 1: 2/1  rent: 950comp 2: 2/1 rent: 992comp 3: 1/1 rent :1,025In response to curiosity.- The reasoning behind converting it to a 2/2 came about when I walked the home. being that the home doesn't have a large floor plan the third bedroom ate up a lot of space.
