Remote property management?

Ben Cantu
Posted Jan 20 2022, 18:03

Need some suggestions. So I am under contact on a 6 unit apartment. To make things short, the plan was always to just hire property management and move on to find the next deal. We’ll I’ve found that nearly every property manager in the area has the luxury of picking the higher end properties to manage, so they keep passing on my potential property. I live 5 hours away… suggestions?

Have a realtor rent the units for you and self manage.

I'd be concerned if several PMC's have passed on managing it. 

What Class is the building & neighborhood?
