Although there are significant advantages from employing a property manager, there is also a cost associated with hiring a rental property manager. In addition to the fees of rental property management, there are other reasons why rental management may not be for you. Consider the following factors to determine if hiring a property management company would be a good choice for you. Ask yourself these questions:- Will you live and work close to your investment? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Clifton 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 look forward to the chore of identifying good tenants. Some real estate investors think that maintaining a property and managing handymen is pleasurable. Thus, they enjoy taking late night calls. Conversely, if you don't want another job, you may not want the chores of managing your own property. If, you don't need the work from the day-to-day chores, you are smart to consider employing a property management company to manage your property.
- Do you want to manage your tenants? If you have tenants, with out a doubt you will have to deal with disagreements. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find wrestling your renters is a joy. In addition, if you're not a professional property management company, 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. Hence, hiring a property manager may be a good (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 can afford it. If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, you'll probably 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 manager.
- 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 understand property management in today's litigious culture the more you'll know the value of having a professional in your corner.
- Do you have a list of maintenance people? Each rental property needs upkeep. If your tenant emails in need of property upkeep will you know who to hire 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 might want to move toward employing a property management company.
