Success stories: Property management startup

[Marc-Andre Bordeleau]

Hey guys and gals,

I created this thread in hopes to hear about some of you guys' stories.

I am currently in the process of obtaining a collegiate certificate in property management here in Canada and like most on here, I am dreaming of being able to start my own business. I currently work as a rental agent so I get to work with property managers, tenants and owners on a daily business and I am learning everyday which is really rewarding. 

I have read many threads on here about people wanting to start property management companies and I always enjoy reading posts about investors who started their own PM companies from the ground up and had tremendous success or who had a hard time. It is truly motivating for me as I would like to eventually in a couple of years do the same and I'm currently in the process of gathering as much info as I can and learning the most efficient strategies to manage.

I am looking forward to learning about your experiences! Tips and strategies are most definitely welcome!
