Any landlord who has owned and operated property knows exactly what's been done to it and what the issues are. 

(It's not always as easy as "just create another LLC", sometimes due to time/logistical limitations and sometimes due to the extra ongoing expense & complexity of another entity.)These days, I actually think I prefer LLC names as generic and boring as possible, so they don't stand out and aren't easy to Google - a kind of pseudo-anonymity.

These are legit tech jobs which gets them out of their logistics only business state.

I buy and hold, and operate Airbnb's here in Tulsa and in Galveston, TX.

One way that TK operators will get you to overpay is to sell a SFH based on a cap rate.

Many are well represented by sellers & turnkey operators here on BiggerPockets. 

To be honest, as a PM (take it for what it is worth to you), I don't see the PM fees as a major contributor in the 12%+ in additional operating costs, but I am not privy to your Owner statements.

These management companies have no shame and expensing cost to you, even though you operate on a smaller scale than the larger companies. ]

The challenges are unique but I think there is a lot of potential to pair local operators with investors located around the country. 

The logistics of them signing and sealing a permit from that distance may be a little rough, but they might know people local.
