Some will suggest surveying the industry and seeing what others who perform the same role and duties typically get paid. 

You also would want to have a qualified appraisal of the property performed to set the transaction price.

I use QuickBooks online and it works great for accounting and property performance reports, but it isn’t made to manage properties.

The investor is simply walking in to an already performing property without the inherent risk of buying and rehabbing.As @Milton Marcelin pointed out, there are some unscrupulous providers out there, but there are some darned good ones too.

@Barry CollierTaxation regarding note investing is complex.Please make sure that the accountant you select knows the treatment regarding performing and non-performing notes.

But now the county doesn't perform this function any more.

If your state does require licensing and you hire a broker to fulfill that requirement and/or perform the duties, what happens if the broker does not work out?

Although as time goes on Im more likely to keep some of the better performing properties regardless of the capex like my Rockville property.

Otherwise they could just go with a proven performer for the market average return and not take on additional risk.
