Rental Management

[merc669]

Subject speaks for itself. Looking for a management company for a possible upcoming rental unit in the Park. I am aware of companies like Horton and Rental King. Is there anybody else?

McNellis (sp?) handles my mothers rental in Solomon's. Not sure if that is part of their regular service or because we had a previous relationship with the realtor.

If there is anyway to do it, do it yourself.
Never had any luck with management companies. It's all about fees and commissions and they don't give a sit about your property JMHO

Never have others do for you, what you can, or should, be able to do for yourself.

Used a management agency for two years. Waste of time and money. IMO. Their level of concern about my property was low. I do it myself, spend far less money, and about the same amount of time.

Durkin's Realty manages the rental I'm currently living in. Very pleasant on my end. The owner lives out of state.

We used a realtor to screen potential renters. Once she found and qualified them, we took over as property managers. One time fee and done with it.

you assume they have the time. One reason I seriously don't want to be a landlord is dealing with the BS, it's time and my time is worth money, more money than what I would make dealing with tenants.

I assume nothing. The point being. Those that do not know how to do something, and rely on others, are asking to be taken advantage of or cheated. If you know everything there is to know about being a landlord and property owner, have the experience, and want to outsource your property management to another, that's fine. You know what to look for if issues arise or if you are being screwed over. If not, I think, one is asking for trouble. While time can be a factor, I believe, everyone should first learn about the, activity?, before they ask, or have, someone else to do it for them.
