Change your property manager NOW !!
I just reviewed my PM sheets for the year in my HOUSTON properties. 1st half of the year I had PM who charged 10% PM fees and had BUTT load of maintenance costs. I moved PM to a NEW property manager who charges a flat fee of $75/month.
Here is an example of ONE property comparison between OLD PM vs. New PM.
Jan to May - OLD PM - Joni
Total expenses $5238 (crazy!!!!)
Total Rent: $5727
Net income: $489 (pitiful)
June to Dec - new PM - Jerry
Total expenses - $525 ($75/month management fees, ZERO maintenance!!!)
Total rent - $9765
Net income - $9240 !!!
What a difference a good PM makes in your cash flow.
If you have good reasons to change PM, please don't hesitate, you could be losing a ton of money or missing opportunities to improve your cash flow position.
