A few important things I would be looking for:1) the experience and credentials of the broker who supervises the company as well as the lead property manager2) the services they offer and how they line up with your needs and expectations3) the use of technology to make their job and yours easier 4) if they have a landlord-tenant attorney on retainer to help guide them on legal issues (not to mention the creation of lease agreement, landlord forms and notices, etc.)5) their process and policy for a) listing, b) application, c) tenant selection, d) routine inspections, e) maintenance services, f) property and tenancy update reports to you, g) lease enforcement policy, and f) move-out process.6) property owner reviews (you can't always rely on Google reviews, because they may not reflect actual quality of the company, but still) 7) beneficial programs for both owner and tenant 8) a property management agreement that would indicate they know what they're doing and have the experience to know what matters in a PMA.

Quote from @Colleen F.: @Dave Allen  I don't know if any lenders can comment, they may suggest a different type of loan but if you are half owners  I would think you would split the income but if you were living there I see why you did it the way you did.

Quote from @Bob Stevens: Quote from @Jill F.: Quote from @Bob Stevens: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Quote from @Bob Stevens: Quote from @Jill F.: Quote from @Bob Stevens: Quote from @Jill F.: Hud "fair market rent" determinations of "reasonable" rent are based on the 40th percentile of rents for a "moderate" apartment in a given small market rent (zip code) area.

Quote from @Colleen F.: @Chris Seveney  I saw your answer to this question and was wondering how you manage the LLC, do your retain your LLC mortgage, and have the tenants pay as they always did to the LLC or did you have all payments to the trust and new accounts with the trust on them.
