Quote from @Krishnan Iyer: Hey Tom, I use Stessa to manage all my income and expenses (bookkeeping) for all my properties.

Let's talk,DanIve actually been looking into buying a condo myself as an investment, I have a few rules, needs to be with both good hoa management & relatively cheap fee (bellow $600 a month) needs to be in area where I’m not competing against other new construction apartments, needs to be an area where even townhomes are so expensive you are not competing, I.e. upper nw, nova, Bethesda etc. needs to be 1990’s or newer in most cases.

A bit concerning if the market takes a turn but overall and overtime we will be in a good postion.PS - Since 2003, Dean & DeWitt Property Management has helped investors buy, sell, and manage investment properties in the St.

Quote from @Josh Otero: Hi BP community, I know you've got some crazy tenant stories and I want to hear it.I'll go first:1) I was managing a 5 story apartment building and a dog fell off the 4th floor balcony because of the owner not paying attention.

Consider reaching out to a local Rental Owners Association to connect with experienced hosts, gain valuable insights, and access resources that can help you navigate property management more effectively.

I used Hostify and you can work it into the management system to figure and charge all of that for you.  

However, some of the best cash-flowing markets on paper can also come with the biggest management challenges.

Has anyone purchased from the Peak Group and used them for property management? 

Long term rentals are easier to manage and come with less risk.

I am also planning on using a property manager as I have an 8 - 5 full time job.
