As far as starting a property management company without a license, I am sad to say that you are correct. 

I run the company with 2 partners as an LLC and do not have any employees.

You can look to seller financing or other creative means if that is an option with the seller.Either way, I would say be careful if you do purchases below 100K that result in a loan below 100K, Options are severely limited and there is often an "interest rate penalty" if the loan is at this level and it is EXTREMELY challenging when the loan if below 75K.

The partners take care of the rehab part.

We got quotes from 2 different companies.

Note that I have 40% overall equity in my properties, 100% on time payment, very good care of the business. 

I would just be very careful!

Keep in mind that most skip tracing companies get contact info for about 70%-80% of the leads you send them.

This used to be servicemagic.com, but they've changed names recently - same company.

Lot of big name companies are investing in the area and population is steadily growing.
