Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator.So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

It might be worth exploring other opportunities in the same neighborhood that offer better profit margins with less upfront risk.

Hi Jose- I don’t know the MO market but I can offer some advice based on my experience! 

There is a property that I'm making an offer on that has been sitting on the market for over 80 days.

But what if market decides not to offer co-op?

Hypothetically, I could sell all my rentals and put the equity into something different, such as an RV Park/storage, self-storage, mulit-family, mid-term rentals . . .Bottom line, I would love any advice anyone has to offer. 

My advice would be to put yourself around people who are doing what you want to do and lead by offering value (which you've already suggested you would work for free).

Lastly, one tenant is a headache and we are wondering about offering cash for keys.
