Although an invester will enjoy many benefits from employing a rental property manager, there is also a cost associated with hiring a rental property manager. In addition to the costs of rental management, there are other reasons why property management might not be for every landlord. Think about the following questions to determine whether employing a property management company would be the best choice for your property. Ask yourself these questions:

Will you reside and work not far from your property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Pinecrest Estates is a very transient area. Northern Virginia has quite a few 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 chore of finding trustworthy tenants. Some real estate investors find that maintaining a property and managing handymen is pleasurable. Hence, they enjoy taking late night calls. But even so, if you don't need another job, you may not want the work of managing your own rental property. If, you don't need the work from the day-to-day chores, you are smart to consider hiring a property management company to manage your investment.
Do you want to wrestle your renters? If you have tenants, eventually you will have issues. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find wrestling your renters is fun. More importantly, if you're not a trained property manager, you can get into trouble in a hurry if you don't understand local regulations. If you've already got a full-plate, then the last thing you need is more to worry about. For this reason, hiring a property manager may be a smart (and tax deductible) expense.
Can you afford the cost? Let's face it. employing a property management company is much more attractive choice if you're not in a cash crunch. If monthly cash-flow is not an issue, you'll likely save money by paying a 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 understand the tenant's rights? Do you understand your responsibilities? The more you know about rental management in today's litigious society the more you'll know the benefit of having a professional on your side.
Do you have access to a network of maintenance people? Each rental property needs repairs. If your renter contacts for maintenance will you know who to hire and what to do in a prompt manner? Do you know which repairs are the landlord's responsibility and which repairs are a renter responsibility. If not, you should move toward hiring a property management company.
