Renting Out a Property Myself (without a realtor)?

[James Smith]

Hi everyone,

Any negatives to renting out a property myself without hiring a realtor or someone to do all the dirty work? Our neighbor's friends are interested in renting out our place. My property management company said they can take care of the lease, collect move in funds, give supporting docs (like certificate of rental suitability), lead paint disclosure, move in inspection, etc for $600 but I'm wondering if I should just do it myself?

Thanks!
