I'm looking for someone local in the PGH area if anyone has recommendations for when the time comes in the next few months. 

There are a lot of things that need to address for a PM company between compliance with the state, local rent control in a lot of your area you'll be covering, a lot of competition that is in your area, marketing/ads, and so much more. 

I know that these are largely location dependent, but it would be helpful to connect with someone and see what is available, get a feel for the local laws and what to look out for, etc.We would also appreciate any insight from anyone who has done this already!

Missouri and Kansas also have landlord-friendly laws, with few rent control regulations or tenant protections relative to coastal cities.

Make sure to check out local laws to see if STRs are allowed and if they have restrictions (like they can only operate 180 days/year or you can only have one STR).

By law (costa Hawkins) there is no rent control allowed on SFR anywhere in the state.  

What’s happening in your local market right now?

Find your local real estate meet up group and network with other investors and see what is working in your neck of the woods. 

If yes,  learn the local laws to make sure you're protected. 

They should change the voting laws so people with more property get more votes I'd be in favor of the amount of votes a person gets being directly correlated to the amount of taxes they pay.If you pay $0 in taxes, you get zero votes.
