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?

I am trying to avoid the many fees: document fee, admin fee, attorney fee, BPO fee, underwriting fee, etc.

Having established relationship will help to get better rates too.

Will rates stay higher longer?  

If the property can qualify off LTR rents, I would advise going that route since you will have a favorable interest rate. 

The identical rates of change suggest that, although rents drifted downward, landlords have avoided increasing the relative value of incentives packages used to attract and retain lessees.

Let's say you want to build a lead list of 1,000 physically distressed homes in a target zip code with a distress rate of 10%.

For the property managers in the audience... when setting up a property management agreement, what would you consider to be the best way to handle fees that aren't covered in the monthly management fee?

I would expect the success rate to be well under 10% and the make back your money claim to be a best 25%.  

Depending on your budget @Charles Manabat, we've got plenty on the market in Incline Village on the (Northen) Nevada side of the lake- Unfortunately we're struggling with astronomical fire insurance rate increases which is causing many to sell.
