Do you want to learn more about rental property management in Kingstowne?

Although an invester will enjoy quite a few benefits from hiring a property manager, there is also a cost associated with employing a rental property manager. In addition to the fees of rental management, there are other reasons why property management may not be for you. Think about the following questions to determine whether employing a property manager would be a good option for your investment. Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you live and work not far from your rental property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Kingstowne is a very transient area. Northern Virginia has a lot of military, diplomats, State Department, political appointees and academia.  If you're getting transferred across the country or around the world, it might be a good idea to let a professional manage your rental. Even simple tasks can get complicated very quickly when you aren't around to manage the details.
• Do you want to handle the details of property management? Some landlords enjoy the task of identifying good tenants. Some property owners find that keeping up with maintenance and managing handymen is rewarding. For this reason, they have fun fielding late night calls. On the other hand, if you don't want more work, you might not want the chores of managing your own investment. When, you don't want the work from the day-to-day tasks, you are smart to think about employing a property management company to handle your property.
• Do you like wrestle your tenants? If you have renters, sooner or later you will have disagreements. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find fight with your tenants is pleasant. More importantly, if you're not a professional property management company, you can get in deep trouble in a hurry if you don't understand landlord obligations. If you've already got your hands full, the last thing you want is more to worry about. For this reason, employing a rental property manager may be a good (and tax deductible) expense.
• Can you afford the cost? Let's face it. hiring a rental property manager is much more attractive option if you're not in a cash crunch.  If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, you'll likely save money by employing a rental property manager and writing off the expense.  But if at the end of every month cash is tight, you might not want to pay a property management company.
• Can you afford the risk? Do you understand the Virginia Residential Landlord Tenant Act? Do you know the tenant's rights? Do you understand your responsibilities?  The more you know about property management in today's litigious culture the more you'll understand the benefit of hiring an expert in your corner.
• Do you have access to a network of maintenance people? Each rental property requires upkeep. If your tenant emails for maintenance will you know who to phone and what to do in a prompt manner? Do you know which repairs are the real estate investor's responsibility and which repairs are a tenant expense. If not, you might want to move toward hiring a rental property manager.
