Investing in one city vs diversifying

Right I've owned one property in one city for about a year. Things are okay, although I find myself getting annoyed at my management company. I suspect this is because I am a small landlord and the company is focusing on its larger clients. Nothing major, but I feel like I'm not a priority. I constantly have to remind them to do things. The property is not 100% passive. Every month I have to review the payments, and this month I caught a payment issue where the management company thought I was paid but I was not. 

There is another city that meets my investment criteria. I'm considering investing there for diversification purposes. Not only for the house, but also the management company.

But there is a reason to concentrate - if I get to be a bigger client, the management company might treat me better.
