I have been at this since 2021 so I am relatively new myself and really enjoyed it. 

Try interviewing at least three managers.1.

Hi All, Not sure I'm posting in the right place but it says this is the Rental Property Management Forum, but it's about the business end.I'm looking for some guidance from other PMs who have created a profit sharing bonus program with their staff.

Trying to Scale Solo.The Myth of Doing Everything YourselfWhen I first got into real estate, I thought I had to:✅ Find the deals✅ Secure financing✅ Handle renovations✅ Manage tenants✅ Deal with maintenance✅ Track every dollarI figured, “If I want to maximize my profits, I need to do it all myself.”Sound familiar?

→ A property manager could do that.📌 Maintenance Issues?

This means that every year, your IRR (Internal Rate of Return) will increase.4) In an appreciation heavy market like San Diego, the IRR is going to be the best way to calculate your earnings as cash flow is fairly low relative to initial costs (down-payment, closing costs, carry costs while placing tenants)5) To calculate your IRR, you want to use this formula: (Appreciation + loan pay down +/- Net rents)/ down- payment.you can include the Closing Costs, and carry costs, but I usually do not.

Those effected go well beyond the property owners, the economic contribution of RE and subsequent economic loss in the form of: management, maintenance, landscaping, caretaking, hospitality, tourism, contracting, designing, pools and gardening is economically catastrophic and will reverberate well beyond specific zip codes.

You must learn to manage the property well.

The managers are non-communicative.

I don't see how they relate to wanting to educate myself or asking for reading recommendations.
