Hello everyone,This is a few years off for me, but I was wondering when someone would decide that hiring a FT employee to manage a property (and potentially FT maintenance) would make sense?

I feel I could definitely meet both of those on my own, as my husband works full-time , and I will be the only person besides the hourly employees stated above that would be accruing hours.

@Andreas Mathews admirable, but make sure you do some research so you understand what a PM can make.Starting your own PMC business will require 75-150 doors to make a decent living, depending on gross rents and your fee structre.Working for a SFR PMC as a PM, will require a RE license and you usually get paid a percentage of the gross rents the portfolio of owners/properties you manage generates.

They put one of their employees into one of my houses, and after I switched to a new property manager, that tenant stopped paying rent (amazing!)  

With a fideicomiso, the gross income is taxed through a withholding tax whereas, with the corporation, the rate, you can deduct expenses but the taxation rate is higher.

FCI is big (160 employees) and their portal may seem like overkill, but they have their systems down and they are responsive.

These are NonQM loans that underwrite by using the gross cashflow (as evidenced by net deposits in your bank account or how much was reported on your 1099) and then applying an expense ratio (usually 30-70%) to determine your gross income.

Bear in mind that the fiscal treatment of the two options in Mexico is different (withholding tax on the gross income with the fideicomiso vs cost deductions with the corporation).

Of course, you can delegate most of these tasks to employees, but then you should also budget time for employee management, hiring, and training.

Quote from @Leo Gregoire: I'm assuming you werent taking 15% of gross off the top for cap ex, vacancy, and maintenance?
