Property Management Transition

[Kristoffer Bergen]

Hey all.

I live in WA state and have several properties in surrounding Nashville, Tennessee that are managed by a very small property management company. After some recent not sitting well scenarios we want to go with another company OR manage the properties ourselves.

1) Recommendations for management companies that you have had direct experience with?

2) Managing remote when we live in Seattle, good/bad idea?

3) Regardless of 1 + 2 how and what are the steps to transition away from management company?

Thanks, any all advice welcome.
