So, owners mistakenly think price is the only differentiator – and look for a PMC like they’d shop for groceries☹We encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others by reading posts here on BiggerPockets from owners that picked a PMC solely by price and regretted it.We recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Even if someone gives you a referral, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that just because a PMC met their expectations, they’ll meet your expectations.

Several were employees of my investment company and played major roles in 3,500+ units acquired, while supporting students who’ve now surpassed $1B in transactions.

I think it hasn't crossed over into being more cost effective yet.

I’ll cross-check sites like Redfin, Rentometer, or even local property appraiser data to see what’s realistic for rent and resale value.2.

They can cross paths, but don’t necessarily have to.
