@Paola Astrid Find the local NARPM (national association of residential property managers) chapter's website and you'll find a list of each professional PM. 

If all things are equal consider who responds most timely and do so with a professional tone, text, and/or email? 

Keep in mind, though, if you just sell outright, you could be looking at capital gains and depreciation recapture, so it’s worth crunching the numbers with a proper tax professional (I’m not one, by the way).What do you think the rest of the community has seen happen to property values since last year, and do you believe it changes the 1031 conversation?

Hindsight is 20/20.Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I've always managed my own properties but am beginning to open my eyes to the fact it may be better to have it professionally managed and focus on my investments more.    

I’ve been researching local professionals and would welcome any advice on how to vet and connect with reliable team members, particularly in a high-cost area like the Bay Area.As for hard money, I haven’t explored it in depth yet, but I’m open to the idea for the right deal.

HI ReetiI would 100% recommend contacting local professionals in your chosen markets. 

Did you take professional photos and what do you have the amount for rent?

Building a brand speaks to your personal and professional values which ultimately speaks to the guest who ends up using your space.

So many, please message me for details Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
