I would try and manage it yourself if you have the time and effort. 

The current one lasted 8 years and needs to be replaced (as per what our property manager is saying)I heard front loaders could leak, so I typically only do top loaders for rentals.

I am a CT based investor, flipper and property management company owner.  

I work with Property Management in Houston but can recommend some great networking/educational events for you :) Check out Space City REI - there's monthly meetups with an educational speaker relating to real estate investing and there are plenty of Investors looking for Wholesalers out there! 

I’ve been looking into areas like Oakhurst, Mariposa, Yosemite West, and surrounding towns.If you own or manage a vacation rental in this region, I’d love to hear about your experience.

I am glad you highlighted the management piece as this is a crucial part of buying in another market.Excited that you are stabilized and are generating cash flow on that deal. 

Somehow they manage to live with it.

Meanwhile, I have 10 units management experience. 

I have quite a few clients from upstate NY who have properties under my management in Florida.Just a thought ;)

Ive been using the same for many years now and its my foundation for operations, follow-up, workflow management and communications.
