Even the best property management companies (PMC) struggle with:- Finding reliable handyman and contractors (ServiceTechs)- Same with affordable ones- Tracking preventive maintenance- Tracking previous work for potential reoccurrence warranty coverage- Understanding tenant reported problems, so the correct ServiceTech can be dispatched- Determining if tenant is at fault for an issue & should be charged - and will proof stand up in court?

If you find someone that seems to know a lot of people needing your services, wouldn’t it make sense to focus more resources on them?

If you approach the conversation by first finding out their goals, then you can back into a strategy that will work for the both of you.

@Damini Dutta I would definitely put some time and effort into finding out more about this company. 

I have two options 6.625% 30 year or 6.15% 15 yearI want to invest aggressively in the near future on more propertiesThe loan is only $110k and the monthly payment for 15 year is $563 and $750I will earn 2-3k a month in gross rental revenueThe property is in a declining population areaRecently rennovated, and all major things were relatively recently improved such as plumbing, the roof, a/c, electric, etc.Will require a lot of management as it is rent by the room so I may switch to a normal rental after 10 yearsI'm trying to find what will mathematically net me the most money in the long run.

You could tell them to cancel the listing and you will find someone else to list it after a month not 4 months (the market take is subjective too, all dependent on what your house has compared to others, where it is located, the size of it, and so many other factors).

We'll sell the properties if we can't find a PM company that works. 

My main goal is to find something relatively close to the DMV area but without the DMV price tag.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
