Hey BP-er's! Just wanted to see if any Lubbock investors had a recommendation on property management companies. This would be my first property and I am trying to decide between self management and hiring a company. Also, I don't live in Lubbock, so that is an additional consideration. Thanks everyone!

I am in the same boat, ready to buy, just need to find the right place that fits my criteria and that's within budget. From what I am seeing, the few properties that hit the market are snatched up fairly quickly, even faster for off-market deals. 

One of my main issues when analyzing has been estimating the monthly rental rate. I am seeing everything from $1,000 - $1,400/ month in the 3/2's that I am looking at. 

If you are up for some rehab, adding bathrooms, etc., that opens up some additional inventory to analyze. 

You are just up the road from me, lets connect, get together and compare notes. Good luck!

Welcome @Ted Boyle. Between the podcasts and online content, BP has had a tremendous effect on my REI path. Hoping to find my first property soon in Lubbock. Good luck.

 Thank you. Any thoughts on whether or not prices will hold steady for 2017, or come down slightly?

Good info, Thanks @Andrew Postell. 

@Andy Sudbrock any updates on the transfer process?
