I think he does have a lease with the tenants, but he said the realtor contract is only for the realtor to lock in the client for a specific period. But, I do think it is important (like you said) that it specifies details about the commission, etc. I will ask him.

Found a realtor through a local (Houston TX) contact who helped her find a good tenant. I strongly believe in only hiring through verified contacts. That said, the realtor says he didn't have a contract with her and does not need a contract with me either and he works based on trust. Thoughts please! (I will insist on a contract, but I don't want him to think I don't trust him.) Is a contract necessary in all cases? I checked his listings. He seems to have very few but the rentals move fast, although not the sales.

@Joe S. Ok. I get that! 

@Joe S. Are you an out of state owner or in state but too busy to manage yourself? Can such a model be managed remotely, but hire someone per hour as needed for in person stuff?

You quoted high premiums (?) Double rent, pet fee, pet dep, lawn care. Could that be one reason?

@Tim Jacob Thank you! That's a great way to put it. I have the Type 1 property. Hoping to get a great long term no-hassle tenant.

@PhillipVera Thanks for the input.

Should I hire a PM company or rent and manage my out of state house myself?
Any thoughts?

Thanks!

How old are you? If I may ask?

Why not leverage existing equity and start right now?
