Virginia;MilitaryBackground StoryI bought a duplex in November 2016 in Virginia but after I bought the property I hired a PM because I had to move to Mississippi for 9months and I had nobody in VA to overlook the property and collect rentI inherited 1 tenant and my PM acquired the other side.Predicament (because I'm nervous) & QuestionsPredicament I want to get rid of my PM because I want to have the stress of being a Landlord with small quantity of Units so when I acquire more units in future and hire a PM I will know everything there is to know or at least enough to not get toyed around and taken advantage of.Ive read Brandon Turners Book, For dummies book, Virginia Landlord and Tenant Act which were beneficial.
