Regardless of how you find them, try to interview at least three managers1.

Interview CPAs to find out how much experience they specifically have with the 3115. 

I manage my own, but have been interviewing PM's for the future.

Interview the potential renters prior to the viewing to make sure they at least meet your minimum criteria to rent.

Hi @Robin Casper,The most successful investors I interview never stop...but they change their business to suit their lifestyle.

Do a phone interview with applicants first.

Hello everyone, I’m at a crossroads.First off in like to say I’ve listened to almost all of the BiggerPockets podcasts and interviews and have several of their books and guests books. ( just saying so you know I didn’t just show up without any knowledge).I’m at a point where I can almost pull the trigger on my first multifamily property.

Emmanuel, I have a realtor referral you can interview there.Ginger

Fewer people also likely means less ware and tear however you will need to determine what type of parents they are when you do their personal interview.

Attend district court - look at the cases - listen to the lawyers - You can really waste lots of money on non-aggressive lawyers and CPS's ----- make sure you interview them, ask them about their past successes.Good luck ------ if you were in Baltimore - I'd give you some names
