(AMH did not respond to a request for comment from CBS News on its fee strategy.)Tricon Residential, which owns 36,000 single-family home rentals, increased its fee revenue by 42% since the pandemic (when many late fees were banned).

Airdna offers this tool, but you'll need the top subscription for it. 

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

Seller never paid the fees.

(Assuming a FICO of 720+)Are they charging you any lender origination fees? 

This is a potential life raft for all STR owners who have been hijacked by the ever-increasing fees imposed by VRBO and AIRBNB. 

I know I just typed you an essay but I said all that just to say this:  Be careful with these people who pop up in your messages claiming to be private lenders and asking for upfront loan origination fees. 

No fees involved and bookkeeping isn’t that difficult.

My company offers full-service property management as well as a monthly subscription model.
