I consider myself to be a very honest, and professional individual,and my reputation means a lot to me, so please only professional people reach out; really not trying to deal with people who don't do good business. 

If anyone knows of a reputable property management company in the NE DC area pls holla.ThanKS in advance.

My reputation is very important to me, especially given the fact that I have been in small business for over 5yrs, and I understand the value in keeping a pristine reputation.

I was under the impression that you pay less taxes with an LLC because you would choose corporate taxation.

I would definitely come to a formal written agreement with whomever you choose to carry out property management from here forward.

Location and the market you choose is very important.
