Hi Greg! Great question; I don't have any PM recommendations directly in Sarasota, but since it sounds like you're going to be buying a rental property and won't be able to move in for about 6 months or so, it might be a good idea to consider a landlord software that allows you to automate a large part of this process. Keep in mind that most PM companies take 6-10% of rent and at least 1 month's rent (which can be brutal if you're only thinking 6 months). Is it a 1-bedroom/studio, or, rather, what kind of property is it? @Greg Mcswain

@Greg Mcswain I have someone here who manages vacation rentals. They just need to know the area it’s in and details of the property so I can connect you. Feel free to DM me if you’d like!

Except for certain areas, Sarasota county only allows you to rent your property once every 30 days. Also be careful about HOA restrictions.

Ah ok, I just realized my person just does AirBNB stuff for vacation rentals so I don't think it'll work.

Hey Greg, I believe I know which community your referring too and they have a 7mo minimum for a renter. In general, Sarasota can be tricky between the City/County ordinances and the multitude of HOA's all with their own set of guidelines. I'm in Nokomis, Palmer Ranch is just down the road.
