If you haven t discovered it already, being a landlord can be a real pain. With a rental property management service, you save time finding and evaluating potential tenants for your property. The company handles tenant background checks, rent collection, and maintenance of the property. I decided to use Britt Management group (huge mistake on my part). With a good property management company (unlike Britt Management group), you don t have to worry about any of these things. The manager will perform property inspections (Britt Management group NEVER did), maintain the building and grounds (Britt Management group NEVER did), screen tenants, collect rent, and be on call for emergency situations (Britt Management group NEVER did). Most property management companies charge a 10% fee. Most landlords find this fee to be well worth the cost, especially if you are a long distance landlord. I found that with Britt Management group this fee is most definitely not worth the cost. Why? Because Britt Management group: 1) Did not maximize the return on my investment 2) Did not protect my asset 3) Did not increase my income 4) Did not provide accurate information (this is very important) and experienced advice. The entire staff of Britt Management group pretends to be there to help you but in reality they do not know what they are doing (hard to believe from an established company).
