When you put that in terms of a percentage of your net profit - that is 40% of your net profit going to the PM.

I know for our portal in Buildium owners can log in and run different reports like income statements, profit and loss, general ledger, etc.

How about the simple obvious that the inputs to deliver the service/product have a base-line and market prices have, OBVIOUSLY, been at about as lean of operating profit margins as can be. 

Flipping outside your zone can be profitable too, just gotta make sure the numbers work.

In Summary: Wall Street and the stock market is handing other people your money, hoping after you let them make a ton on it no matter which way it goes, that end of day you will be left with what you put in and profit to make it worth it's while.

And there are landlords who only care about maximizing profit and nothing else.
