Finding the right Management company is about doing your due diligence and making sure everything they have to offer meets your needs, including the fee structure offered. Pay close attention to the details. As you will see below, there can be many unexpected fees associated with Property Management contracts. Here is a short list to help make you aware of what to expect when shopping Property Management companies. 
ACCOUNT SET UP FEES
Many times, you will see this as an upfront cost when signing on with a Management firm. These fees can be non-existent or range in price and generally cover new account set up. We do not charge these fees!
MONTHLY MANAGEMENT FEES
The monthly fee associated with Management can vary from company to company. Percentage based fees based on rental income and rent collected are very common. Flat fees for monthly Management are also an option. Check out our fee structure by clicking here.
MAINTENANCE UP-CHARGES
These are usually presented as a percentage increase in maintenance charges. Always be aware if your Property Manager charges an extra fee on repair invoices. We do not charge these fees!
TENANT PLACEMENT FEES
In some cases, firms will charge a commission for finding qualified renters, which could easily be upwards of one month’s rent. There are many companies out there charging zero fees to do all the advertising, qualifications and placement. We do not charge these fees!
