Although there are several advantages from hiring a property management company, there is also a cost associated with hiring a rental property manager. In addition to the cost of rental property management, there are other reasons why property management may not be for every landlord. Weigh the following questions to figure out whether hiring a rental property manager would be the right choice for your property. Factors to consider:

Do you reside and work not far from your rental property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Southridge 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 rental management? Some landlords look forward to the challenge of identifying reliable tenants. Some real estate investors think that maintaining a property and managing little tasks is fun. Hence, they get a kick out of taking late night calls. But, if you don't need more work, you may not want the work of managing your own rental property. When, you don't want the work from the routine management of your properties, you are smart to consider hiring a property management company to handle your rental property.
Do you want to argue with your renters? If you have tenants, eventually you will have to deal with problems. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find dealing with your tenants is satisfying. More importantly, if you're not a full-time property manager, you can get into trouble in a hurry if you don't know landlord obligations. If you've already got a full-plate, the last thing you need is more to worry about. Accordingly, employing a property management company might be a smart (and tax deductible) expense.
Can you afford the cost? Let's face it. hiring a rental property manager is much more attractive option if if your cash flow is positive. If monthly cash-flow is not an issue, you'll likely save money by employing 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 engage a rental 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 know your responsibilities? The more you know about rental management in today's litigious culture the more you'll understand the benefit of paying a professional in your corner.
Do you have maintenance people? Each rental property needs repairs. If your renter contacts in need of repairs will you know who to phone and what to do in a timely fashion? Do you know which repairs are the real estate investor's expense and which repairs are a renter responsibility. If not, you might want to move toward hiring a property management company.
