That said - before hiring any property manager, you should be interviewing them to make sure they fit your needs/comfort level.

Remember, it takes time to find a good PM, and it's good to stay in touch with other PMs that you interviewed. 

For you investors on "Series LLC Friendly" states who are also investing out of state, what are you doing to protect yourselves across state lines where they do not recognize these types of entities?
