They've also took an extra month to remove a delinquent tenant because the Virtual Assistant "felt bad" for having to not renew a family, even though they weren't paying all the rent.Instead of insulating the owner against any management issues, they're basically forcing me to manage the situation--which defeats the point of Property Management.Thus, I'm paying the same amount of 10% management fee for a service that's gone severely downhill.Am thinking about switching.Question:Anyone have any recommendations on who I might talk to for managing SFHs in the Cordova/Germantown area?

I don't know Austin well. but I do know Austin is basically the highest priced and I think coolest city in Texas at least I have been told.so it could go up in leaps and bounds.. and keep in mind in these areas again its not like the mid west were rents are basically static and have been for the 20 years I have been funding deals all through the mid west.. rents on the west coast and MAYBE in hot markets like Austin could go up 400 a month in a few years and now its break even... unless you can own A LOT of doors small cash flow is just not all that appealing what is a few hundred a month on 2 houses going to do for you..

For myself in MA I did a cash-out refi with Salem Five bank in 2016 and it was easy and they had very good rates.You'll need to work with the bank to go through the process, it's basically the same as getting a mortgage so you'll need to provide the usual litany of documents like recent pay stub, current mortgage docs, bank accounts, they will pull your credit report, etc.
