I would manage at first to learn the ropes, and then probably use a management company. 

(owns a CRM company)Wholesaler in Akron - "What types of homes do you usually look for when you are looking off-market in Akron?"

I like to think I have done ok. for me finding properties is sales - managing real estate and growing your company requires problem solving. 

When we moved our companies to a new accounting software we looked at Quickbooks, but found its international awareness (tax rules, multi-currency, locale support, etc), project/job, and multi-company abilities to be clunky.To be fair, none of the candidates hit everything on our wishlist.We ended-up selecting MoneyWorks by Cognito and have been satisfied with it over the past three years.

btw, i did not pay that much for sure, but i got what i want... without a mean management company. lol

Also, there is a need in the marketplace for a co-living PM company that doesn't charge too high of rate. 

I am going to start a company website to host the pictures and provide a little explanation of what we did. 

Yep, when we sign up for servicing as a company they ask you "what loss mitigation measures does your company allow" We offer loan mods, forbearance, deed in lieu, short sales and short payoffs.

We got really burnt with our previous PM Company and are looking to change.

In the future when I start trading up to larger properties (50 to 100+ properties) I will likely sell off my current portfolio to condense my holdings to fewer parcels so that way my time is better utilized.
