I was losing my offers to mostly all-cash buyers, and also they were going higher than I wanted with their offers (usually because I had a ROI in mind) - I was not smart because I think I was thinking the low rates would last a while.

I've spoke with the folks over at Abodea, who do offer a scalable call-center approach to HOA PM at quite affordable rates, but we're still missing the kind of local, on-site general contractor/handyman or capital management planning schedules that would be required for proactively addressing homeowner and community association needs. 

@Ray Dixon 5k is not enough, but I would connect with STR Investors in your area and offer help that way you keep building capital while learning more about the business. 

Many foundation repair companies (and some pest control) offer services for crawlspaces, to include mold remediation, encapsulation, etc.

The roof is from 2008, and I assume the bank is carrying insurance on the property.

it seems like they usually only deal with larger companies that have many accounts to offer

If cost is a big factor which I completely understand during these times, then search around but know finding that real estate-friendly accountant that is in the $1,300 (depending on your situation) range and having a good relationship with them might be difficult to find.Lastly, ask her if additional services come with that price. 99% of the time the answer is no, but some firms offer free mid-year calls or check-ins for being a tax preparation client.If you're comfortable reaching out to remote firms contact anyone here in the forums.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Normally I could just wait, but during my approval for the offer, I had to lock my rates at 6.25% FHA and the rate lock period was over around the 16 of July.

Resources such as the Texas Apartment Association and local landlord groups can offer assistance and networking opportunities.Good luck!
