Switched to a Property Manager

[John Reagan Johnson]

This is a post based off of curiosity. To all self managing landlords that switched to using a property management company, what caused you to make the switch? Was there a situation you encountered that deterred you from self managing? Were you just looking to gain your time back? Did you feel like using a property management company could help you achieve the goals you had for your investment property? 

If you have any stories that led you to switch over to a property management company, I'd love to hear them!

@John Reagan Johnson hope you don't mind a PMC answering, but most of our clients hire us because:

1) They live out of state and don't have time & expertise to remote manage

2) They don't have the time to manage

3) They don't feel they have the necessary expertise and/or don't want to risk learning as they go and making an expensive mistake.
