For me, on my properties, it's been pretty good.

Pretty much everything. 

Hey @Rio Nance you’re casting a pretty wide net with your question, since it's not specific to an area or city, but I’ll share based on what I'm seeing.

I didn't want to list this under Scenario 1 as it's redundant and whether or not having more control over your down payment is a pro/con is pretty case-specific.3. ???

You can wargame scenarios to decide what you think is best.On the other hand, that is a pretty sizeable rehab budget. 

They don't communicate well, don't take responsibility for their actions, do not clean or maintain homes well, and will shaft you when it's time to leave.Other than that, it's a pretty good system.

@Robert Zajac pretty sure BRB charges less than an 8% management fee, so just as @Nathan Gesner states, they are making up for being below the "industry standards" by charging more elsewhere.BE CAREFUL about PMCs that claim they don't charge a markup on maintenance - TIME IS ALWAYS MONEY!

My property manager called (I live in Denver) and told me they got it turned off pretty quickly, but a whole wall's worth of drywall was damaged. 

It's going to be pretty dependent on the house to think about what you can expect.

This looks like a very nice property, such a pretty pool, do you also have hot tubs?
