Property Management Cost in Atlanta Area

[Mason Mccullough]

Hey guys I am new to Atlanta and looking to buy a duplex in the next few months around the area. I was wondering what the average cost for property management is in Atlanta so I can factor it into my property analysis? 

Let me know what you guys think and if you have any recommendations for me.

1st months rent for leasing fee is pretty typical throughout Atlanta.

8%-10% monthly mgmt fee is typical throughout Atlanta. If your duplex is in a bad area then expect it to be on the 10% side.

In my opinion you should only be hiring a NARPM credentialed property manager so you avoid the pretenders and wanna-be managers.  You want someone with LOTS of experience and who does management full time and not as a side line to real estate sales.

If you need further assistance then PM me.
