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

We own the listing and self manage.

Ease of management?

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

Nobody watches your money like you do, you'll learn how to manage, so you can manage a manager later and you'll save precious early-years cash flow, which allows you to scale faster, especially in the first 5 years.

We’re developers managing our own portfolio and don’t have any outside investors.  

Not impressed with other large institutional managers who are very light with boots on the ground and in many ways have the attidude they are assisting you in managing the property, not managing it for you.

I recommend that they use a property manager.

Assuming the place is in good shape, there isn't that much management.5.

What makes you want to get into property management?
