Although there are many advantages from hiring a property management company, there is also a cost associated with employing a rental property manager. In addition to the costs of property management, there are other reasons why rental property management might not be for you. Weigh the following factors to decide whether hiring a rental property manager would be the best choice for your rental property. Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you live and work not far from your rental property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent West Springfield 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 property management? Some landlords enjoy the challenge of finding good tenants. Some property owners believe that keeping up with maintenance and managing workers is rewarding. Hence, they get a kick out of taking early morning calls. Conversely, if you don't want more work, you might not want the chores of managing your own rental property. When, you don't want the work from the routine tasks, you are smart to think about hiring a property management company to help to manage your property.
• Do you want to fight with your tenants? 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 wrestling your renters is pleasant. In addition, if you're not a trained property management company, you can get in deep trouble quickly if you don't know tenant's right. If you've already got your hands full, then the last thing you need is more to worry about. For this reason, employing a rental property manager may 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 choice if you're not in a cash crunch.  If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, you'll likely save money by employing 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 employ 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 know your duties?  The more you understand rental management in today's litigious culture the more you'll understand the value of having an experience manager on your side.
• Do you have a list of maintenance people? Each rental property needs maintenance. When your renter 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 property owner's expense and which repairs are a tenant responsibility. If not, you should move toward employing a property management company.
