Property Management or Do It Yourself? What is your preference?

[Samantha M.]

Out of curiosity, how many of you opt to use a property management company, how many of you do it yourself? Whichever answer you select why did you choose it?

Another way to put it is Property Management worth saving you time for %10 rents?

[Joe Bertolino]

Self manage because I only have 12 units and it has been fairly easy to do averaging 4-5 hours a month. I save $700-1000 per month which I use to "snowball" my debt load and I actually enjoy it. I also don't feel like anybody will look after my investment like I do.
