Although an invester will enjoy many benefits from employing a property manager, there is also a cost associated with employing a property management company. In addition to the cost of rental management, there are other reasons why rental property management may not be for you. Weigh the following factors to decide if employing a property manager would be a good option for your rental property. Factors to consider:
  • Will you reside and work close to your rental property? Northern Virginia and to a certain extent Gainesville is a very transient area. Northern Virginia has plenty 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 enjoy the challenge of identifying trustworthy tenants. Some property owners believe that dispatching handymen and managing workers is fun. So, they get a kick out of fielding early morning calls. In contrast, if you don't want more work, you may not want the work of managing your own rental property. When, you don't want the work from the day-to-day chores, you should probably think about hiring a rental property manager to help to manage your rental property.
  • Do you like wrestle your renters? If you have tenants, eventually you will have to deal with disagreements. Even if you find hands-on management rewarding of the property, you may not find managing your renters is a joy. In addition, if you're not a full-time property management company, you can get into trouble in a hurry if you don't know landlord-tenant law. If you've already got a full-plate, the last thing you want is extra worries. Thus, hiring a rental property manager might be a good (and tax deductible) expense.
  • Can you afford the cost? Let's face it. hiring a rental property manager is much more attractive option if you're not in a cash crunch.  If monthly cash-flow is not a problem, 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 duties?  The more you know about rental management in today's litigious society the more you'll understand the value of having an expert in your corner.
  • Do you have maintenance people? Each rental property needs 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 landlord's responsibility and which repairs are a tenant responsibility. If not, you should move toward employing a property management company.
