This family is currently searching for a home, and our agent, who also represents them, has generously offered to waive any commission for connecting us.After outlining our standard tenant qualifications—which encompass application requirements, income verification, rental history, credit score, background checks, a non-smoker policy, occupancy guidelines, pet policy, application fees, and move-in costs—our agent indicated that the extensive discussions and adherence to these requirements "equals a full commission of one month's rent."

I, too, am at a crossroads, deciding whether to self-manage my first property or enlist the services of a property management firm.

After speaking with my family, they mentioned to look in property management service rather than going through a real estate agent.

Recommend that you get a servicer to service the loan for you.
