For instance, said property manager manages maintenance issues, problems that arise during bookings, basically anything that needs a physical person at the property, while I manage the rest?

We have a large salt water spa and your salesperson is wrong about the maintenance.

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Think of yourself of an asset manager, not a maintenance provider or lease-up specialist (but do those well too).3.

Learn basic maintenance stuff from YouTube (caulking, painting, learn how to use a drill, etc) and find a well priced handyman for maintenance.

I have some clients who prefer to have a PM for maintenance/contact/rent collection/general management and will place tenants and write leases for themselves in exchange for a reduced rate.  

I actually like them because the homeowners' association (HOA) usually covers most of the insurance, and there is very little maintenance required.

There are several other issues (undisclosed maintenance markup fees, excessive charges to our account, significant reductions to agreed rent without communication, etc).

These straightforward requirements make the process accessible and convenient for buyers.The initial setup costs typically range between $500 and $1,200 USD, while annual maintenance fees are generally between $500 and $700 USD.

Common fees will include a set-up fee, a leasing fee for each turnover or a lease renewal fee, marking up maintenance, retaining late fees, and more.
