I'm looking at a duplex in a town about 45 minutes away.  I do NOT want to manage it myself.  The property is in good shape and is currently being managed professionaly (owner also lives out of town).  What are the pros/cons of continuing with the existing PM ?

Seems like the pros include:

* continuity in relations with tenant

* familiarity with property/neighborhood

* knows maintenance people who worked on property in past.

Anything I'm missing ?
