Set a deadline for your first purchase and mitigate fears by screening tenants, buying for cash flow, and having a repair fund.

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?
