I was thrown in feet first to manage our family's rental properties.

Managed to check out one episode on organic farming.

I jumped onto more active REI Q4 22 when i realized some managers had no grasp of a changing environment, and others were way ahead of it.

Hello, BiggerPockets community,I own a property in Indianapolis and have been using Real Property Management Indianapolis (RPM Indy) for property management.

Sometimes people who are comfortable managing the details of a job will hire a less skilled person to do it knowing they can get a MUCH better price and a "decent" job IF they themselves stay on top of how the work is being done.

I can share my experience with my 2 rentals in USA and remote management. 

"I recommend double-checking this with the property manager."

You could house hack a duplex with STR and either self-manage or look at a property manager/cohost like “Your Home Away Management, LLC”. 

Does anyone know a good property management company to recommend in the area of Columbus, GA? 

This type of financing will typically look very different and more like a traditional commercial real estate loan.That means a DSCR calculated based on a full NOI and expense load (so inclusive of vacancy loss estimates, credit loss estimates, repairs and maintenance, utilities, management fees and more – in addition to the property taxes and insurance expense that are the only expenses factored in on traditional residential style DSCR loan financing).Additionally, the DSCR minimums are generally going to be higher (typically up to 1.25x), the loan to value ratios lower (higher down payments) and underwrite more sophisticated (which makes sense considering the size and scope of the property).Many multifamily investors for properties of this size (such as more than 11 units) can syndicate capital and have more sophisticated financial and entity structures – its definitely a different world once you get up here in unit count.In Conclusion – when you are looking to invest in multifamily real estate and finance your investment – make sure you have the unit count in mind before you start shopping – the unit range can have a huge effect on your options.
