im sorry but that is the absolute LAST thing i would recommend you do.
management companies work ON THE CLOCK. they work 9-5 for your rent money. when you need filters, they will be there to put them in. if someone says ANYTHING, they will be there to ask. remember someone not guilty will have no reason to NOT invite them in to look around.
if you're going to rent, do it from a private owner, thats only 1 person not a company of people constantly around, its a lot easier to keep 1 person in the loop and not curious opposed to 12 managers on salary trips.
find a landlord that is renting their "vacation home" or a house that they dont live near. find a landlord in a different state that just expects a check in the mail.
BUT DO NOT, DO A MANAGEMENT COMPANY. i swear that will be your worst mistake.
HERES the skinny on MGMT companies,...... Most if not all have a right, yes right to come into your unit with a 72hr warning, they will ask anytime if the can "come check on: the furnace, plumbing, roofing, electrical or anything that they are interested in knowing about" if you say no, or i'm not going to be there, you will get the written notice, then if your there or not they are comming in to "inspect the property" this is akin to a legal search warrant, and they will search for what ever they want to find/think might be a problem/isn't in accord with your lease agreement! You should be aware of this at the very least, never,never ever think "they seem cool" or you'll end up finding out just how uncool people that own the property can be once they are aware/afraid of what might be going on.
Sorry to say it but even here in MECCA: AKA BOULDER CO, some mgmt companies happily rent to people they think might grow, only to enforce the "no illegal activity on the premesis clause" and snatch up your deposit only to rent it to the next sucker and do it all over again (they get licensed card holders under the old "its still illegal on a federal level" issue).
i just watched this go down, again, in "the coolest neighborhood in town, dude" and watched more than a half dozen growers get the 72hr notice all at the same time, scramble to tear down their grows (several were in the last week or two of flowering) with the extended pleasure of being caught up in a lease they were legally responsiable for paying off, and no place to continue their project, and several were billed huge costs for "altering the space without written approval of the owner". One of the guys was even kicked straight to the curb sans deposit or reference after 5 years in the place, because a manager "noticed ducting seemed strange" when looking to see if the place needed to be painted on the outside, see if they do not enter the place they don't even have to tell you they are coming by to look, but once they see anything then they ask "mind if i look at" and you enter three days of HELL!!!!
heads up MOCK REALITY in Colorado is a major player in this rigged game!
