There are usually two kinds of property owners: hands-on or hands-off. The first type, typically called a landlord, would rather manage their property and use property management software, keeping the responsibility of choosing tenants, saving resources on some issues, and staying up-to-date with unpaid rent or necessary house repairs. Hands-off owners would delegate management to a property manager, who charges between 8% and 20% of rental income as their fee. This charge varies based on the number of necessary services: paying bills, getting rent payments, and managing maintenance issues.
