In Virginia, every real estate licensee (commonly called a real estate agent) must complete a state-approved course on real estate, pass a background check and pass a state-approved test. A Realtor must do all this and more. Of the more than two million people who have earned real estate licenses, only some of them are Realtors. It's true that all Realtors in the Commonwealth of Virginia are members in good standing of the National Association of Realtors, the Virginia Association of Realtors, and a local real estate board. To keep good standing, every Realtor must stick to particular high standards of ethical behavior. And, each Realtor must attend continuing education to remain accredited. It's true that all agents and property managers of Nesbitt Realty are Realtors!

While an invester will enjoy significant benefits from hiring a property manager, there is also an associated expense with hiring a property management company. In addition to the costs of property management, there are other reasons why rental property management might not be for you. Think about the following factors to figure out if employing a rental property manager would be a good choice for you. Ask yourself these questions:

Will you reside and work near your rental property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Kings Landing is a very transient community. 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 relish the task of finding trustworthy tenants. Some property owners think that keeping up with maintenance and managing cleaners is fun. So, they get a kick out of fielding early morning calls. On the other hand, if you don't want another job, you may not want the work of managing your own rental property. If, you want little or nothing to do with the day-to-day chores, you should probably consider hiring a property management company to help to manage your investment.
Do you like manage your renters? If you have tenants, eventually you will have problems. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find arguing with your renters is a joy. More importantly, if you're not a professional property manager, you can get in deep trouble quickly if you don't understand landlord-tenant law. If you've already got your hands full, the last thing you want is more to worry about. For this reason, employing a property manager may be a way (and tax deductible) expense.
Can you afford the cost? Let's face it. employing a property manager is much more attractive option if if your cash flow is positive. If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, you'll likely save money by hiring a property management company and writing off the expense. But if at the end of every month cash is tight, you might not want to pay a property manager.
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 duties? The more you know about rental property management in today's litigious culture the more you'll know the benefit of employing an experience manager in your corner.
Do you have access to a network of maintenance people? Every property needs maintenance. If your renter talk tos for maintenance will you know who to phone and what to do in a prompt manner? Do you know which repairs are the property owner's responsibility and which repairs are a tenant expense. If not, you may want to think about hiring a property manager.
