While an invester will enjoy several benefits from employing a property management company, there is also a cost associated with employing a rental property manager. In addition to the fees of rental property management, there are other reasons why rental management might not be for you. Consider the following factors to decide if employing a property management company would be the best choice for you. Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you live and work not far from your property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Alexandria is a very transient area. Northern Virginia has more than our share 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 property management? Some landlords enjoy the task of identifying reliable tenants. Some landlords believe that keeping up with maintenance and managing workers is fun. So, they enjoy fielding calls at strange hours. However, if you don't want more work, you may not want the duties of managing your own rental property. When, you don't want the work from the routine management of your properties, you would be smart to consider employing a property management company to manage your investment.
• Do you want to deal with your tenants? If you have renters, sooner or later you will have to deal with problems. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find fight with your tenants is satisfying. More importantly, if you're not a trained property manager, you can get in deep trouble quickly if you don't know the law. If you've already got a full-plate, then the last thing you need is more to worry about. Thus, employing a rental 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 can afford it.  If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, you'll likely save money by paying 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 hire 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 know your responsibilities?  The more you know about property management in today's litigious culture the more you'll know the value of having an expert on your side.
• Do you have a list of maintenance people? Each rental property must have maintenance. If your tenant contacts in need of property upkeep will you know who to hire 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 tenant expense. If not, you might want to consider employing a property management company.
