I have been with a property mgmt. company for the last 6+ years and thinking of managing on my own.

Putting yourself around the right people will push you very far in RE.

Investors, and in particular those that do *not* manage their properties - how do you track your properties?

I'm looking for people who have actually done it or are brokers that specialize in self-storage and are familiar with the markets who could give me some tips on what to look out for and how to work towards buying them.

The management of the park will be handled by the property management division of Adam Campo Real Estate {Limited liability company established in 2006/Managing countless properties professionally (as a sole proprietor) since 1999}, and we will be employing a full time on-site manager.

Interview as many property managers who manage the type of asset you're investing inGino Thankyou for the feedback.

Leverage TechnologyCRM Tools: Use CRM software to manage your leads and track communication with sellers and buyers.

We are currently managing the property ourselves.

I haven't done any skip tracing really.. but I you look at all of those sites like been verified, spokeo, etc... you can tell there is a ton of information out there tied to every person, people with the same names in same cities... multiple people tied to different addresses..etc...    

Submetering seems reasonable, as the price isn't too terrible, but then I'd have to have the property manager bill them regularly, and at the end of the day, if they do not pay it, then I am still overall responsible for paying it.
