Simple pricing designed for owners building lasting rental portfolios.
Our full-service property management is covered by two fees: a resident placement fee and an ongoing management fee. That's it — the total cost of management, with no renewal fees, inspection fees, or other surprises. A few situational services apply on an as-needed basis and have their own fees, listed openly below.

Pricing FAQ
-
Do I pay management fees when the property is vacant?
No. The management fee is a percentage of collected rent, so when there's no rent coming in, there's no management fee. Leasing work during a vacancy is covered by the resident placement fee, charged once when a new resident is placed. -
How are maintenance approvals handled?
Routine repairs under our maintenance threshold (typically $1,000 for single family; $500/unit for multifamily) are handled without prior owner approval, so issues get resolved quickly. Anything above that threshold gets your sign-off before work begins. Emergency repairs that affect habitability or safety are handled immediately, with you notified as soon as practical. -
Do you require a reserve fund?
Yes. We hold a small operating reserve from collected rent — typically $1,000 for single family and $500/unit for multifamily — to handle routine maintenance and small expenses without requiring approval and funding for each individual item. The reserve is your money; it just lives in our trust account so routine items can be addressed without delay. -
What happens if I cancel?
Thirty days' written notice ends the management agreement. Any pending maintenance work, security deposit accounting, and resident-related matters are finalized before service concludes. There's no termination penalty. -
What happens if I want to sell my property?
Conversations about whether to hold, sell, or trade a property are part of the strategic side of the work — they can come up at any point in the relationship. When you decide to sell, we'll support the decision. For owners referred to us by a real estate agent, we refer the sale back to that agent. For others, we'll talk through the options, including listing the property through our in-house real estate side when that's the right fit. -
What if my property needs work before it can be rented?
We start with an assessment of the property's condition and what's needed to position it for the rental market. Repairs and turnover work are coordinated through the same vendor process used for ongoing maintenance — no markups, with documentation. Larger projects (over $10,000) fall under the project management fee in the situational section above.
Real estate commissions, fees, and compensation are not fixed by law and are negotiable between parties. Your property management agreement outlines the specific fees for your property.
