I’m moving out of Houston and would like to keep my current home as a rental property.

1) Can anyone recommend a good property management company? I have searched the interwebz and spoke to a few but they are all wanting me to sign a contract up front. I would feel better with someone who will come out and do an on site inspection with an in person market evaluation and a make ready plan. Is that too much to ask?

2) Am I crazy for renting it out? I have heard the horror stories. But the RE market is soft and I dont have to sell to complete the move.

House is in 77084 (on edge of 77041). Has never flooded. 3/2.5, 2000 sq ft patio home. Mortgage + Escrow = $1100. Market rent ~$1800-2000.

I was at Houston Methodist West today for about 10 hours while my wife had surgery. They were clearly going above and beyond in regards to covid protocols and budgeting space for pre-op and recovery well away from the ICU or covid patients. They had volunteers….VOLUNTEERS….at 530 in the morning to greet you and escort you to the proper place in the hospital. Every single person we came into contact with was kind and compassionate. The nurses were 20/10.

And I know it’s not just there….its at PCP offices, testing centers, ERs and many other places.

So thanks for what yall do. Stay safe.
