1. What Can a Property Manager
Do for Me?
Property Managers can be useful in Real Estate Investments.

2. Peace of Mind.
Property Managers make money by taking care of
rental properties for owners that don’t want to have
to worry about checking on them all the time, or who
simply can’t due to time constraints or location.

3. Find and Interview Tenants.
Most property managers will also
screen potential tenants with
background checks, credit
reports, and sometimes by calling
employers and past landlords to
ensure that property owners can
trust their tenants to pay their
rent and respect their property.

4. Home Protection.
Most managers will also do a thorough inspection of
the home and document the condition of everything
before the tenants move in, for the owner’s
protection.

5. Investment Protection.
Property Managers also collect rent and deposit it
directly into the owner’s bank account.
Depending on what level of service they offer,
some property managers even check on houses
regularly to take pictures and address any necessary
maintenance.

6. Minimal Expense.
In exchange for all of these services, property
managers collect a percentage of the monthly rental
amount, usually between five and ten percent.
For real estate investors or property owners that
don’t live near their property, it’s more than worth
the expense.

7. More than Worth It.
If investors and homeowners do their homework and
select property managers that are trustworthy, they
can feel free to invest in and rent properties that they
can’t readily check on or find tenants for themselves.
