My own home will be the first property I manage and will give me the opportunity to learn from trial and (hopefully not too much) error what I need to account for, before I manage other people's homes.I plan to take a COS course and get my certification within the next year, but I will already be managing my own property prior to that, as the next course in Denver isn't until September and I plan to buy my next property within the next month.
