But even being a Landlord and outsourcing that staffing via Property Management still requires someone to manage the managers. 

@Robert Spiegel Great question, and it’s always a balancing act when dealing with long-term tenants who’ve been fantastic overall.Based on my experience managing over 1,200 rental homes in North Texas, including areas like Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, and Frisco, here’s how I would approach this:Cleaning Charge: While $540 may feel steep, it can vary depending on the size of the property and local market rates.

The loan is with you, not with your tenant, so none of that means anything to them - in fact because you live in one unit and it's under 4, if you were self-managing you don't even have to abide by fair housing laws (at least on the federal level). 

@Gene PanicciaManagement fees vary, but it's not uncommon for a PM to charge fees for managing tenant-paid utilities or coordinating repairs.

I manage around 400 rentals with 14 years of experience and have never been sued once.

I used it to list my properties, screen tenants, manage payments, send notifications, manage maintenance.

Try interviewing at least three managers.1.

Not only do we find the housing market to be a little more manageable, but a lot of people travel there year round. 

Hi Myles,I found myself managing about 20 rentals through my brokerage at one point.

It is our hope no one in Blue Metrix is a victim of such an aggressive business tactic while part of their management team faces such a difficult health challenge.
