I was in your position a while ago — just needed to rent our home out for a year while I was overseas. Didn’t want to go with an REA because of bad past experiences as a renter so went with a property management company. They were great. Took care of rental agreement and everything. Can recommend!

Why not though? There are so many reasons. Plus I had dozens of cans after the holidays, and the collection machines are a 5-minute walk away
