I am looking for a trustworthy and professional property management company in Fort Wayne IN, Kansas City, Cincinnati OH, and Jackson MS.

I live in California and have a "professional renter" (he is very knowledgeable about the lease and laws and acts strictly within those bounds - I perceive him to be a potential lawsuit threat) in my rental property. 

@Jason Dillard, I realize finding deals is the hardest part, but building a team (reliable professional one) is hard too.Shouldn't I worry about this as well ?

Your situation depends on your involvement, your entity selection, and lots of other factors that preclude an informed opinion.3) You didn't ask, but I offer that you should not take or act on any legal, regulatory, or financial advice on a free forum and always seek a professional opinion or two.  

Other things to consider - do you need cash flow, do you need cash out of the sale (which will be taxable, but could do a partial 1031 exchange), what will you buy as replacement property on the other side, do you want to manage real estate on the other side or have totally passive real estate...If you’re considering an exchange, want to be hands off, and are an Accredited investor, you could exchange to a DST (Delaware Statutory Trust).

Fundrise - https://fundrise.com/ - Using SEC Reg A+, Fundrise offers several “eREIT” products open to non-accredited investors, with a minimum investment of $1,000.

I am looking to meet and network with all types of professionals in this area.

utf8=%E2%9C%9...Start digging through these results and reach out to local investors, some will even recommend professionals on the forums like attorneys, GCs, realtors, etc. 

But it's a not replaceable area and city with so much high income professionals live there.

Be professional and don’t shoot your golden goose atleast not yet
