Enter your units and average rent, pick the service level, and see the honest annual number — management percentage plus tenant placement at realistic turnover, not just the headline rate. Three units at $2,200 with full service and placement runs about $7,400–10,100 a year, roughly 9–13% of gross rents. The flag covers the fee schedule beyond the percentage: maintenance markups and late-fee policies are where quotes quietly differ.
Full service (8–10%) typically covers rent collection, tenant communication, maintenance coordination, inspections and statements — the tenants stop calling you. Collection-only tiers (5–6%) handle money and little else. The line between tiers is exactly what you are buying back: your time and your 2 a.m. phone.
Finding and screening a tenant is a spike of work — advertising, showings, applications, credit and reference checks, lease signing — priced at 50–100% of one month's rent per new tenancy. The calculator assumes roughly a third of units turn over yearly, which is what makes the annual total honest.
Maintenance markups (10–15% on contractor invoices is common), renewal fees, inspection fees, and who keeps late fees or NSF charges. None are scandalous individually — but compare full fee schedules, not headline percentages, and the cheap-looking quote often isn't.
