Property Management Options
 
   
Advantage
Drawbacks
1
Do It Yourself: You find tenants and manage the property yourself. Call me when you need help. I charge flat rates for evictions, repairs or holding your hand.
You can stay on top of your own investment and get all the revenue.
Unless you have property management experience, you are going to struggle.
2
Full Service: I charge 10% of the gross income for the property + 10% over invoice for repairs.
You can kick back and let me deal with the headaches.
You will get the least amount of cash out of your property.
3
Tenant Placement: I charge 75% of the first month's rent. I will evict them at no charge if required. You get all the monthly income.
I'm very good at finding quality tenants and you get all the monthly revenue. You have a choice between using your vendors or mine for repairs.
You are on the hook for repairs.
4
Lease Option: Allow a lease with an option to purchase your property. This is the only method I use with my own personal properties.
This gives you the most cash out of your property as your tenants are responsible for most repairs and they pay a monthly premium.
You can lose money at the back end of a lease/option.
 
Non-Exclusive
I don't get compensated unless I find your tenant.
No Long Term Contracts
You can stop using my services at any time.
No Up Front Fees
I don't charge anything up front.
