Use a Property Manager to fill vacancy

[Jorge R.]

Hello. I have a six-family in New Bedford, Ma.  I think I read somewhere on BP using a property management company to fill a vacancy (for a fee equivalent to 1 month's rent).  I've done well managing the property myself, but filling the last couple of vacancies was difficult. Sometimes I could not show the apartments, or had to cancel, due to last minute work requirements (Military).  What are your thoughts about using a PM just for this?

Thanks
