Vantaggi
Work at home. Business Development team works leads and sets appointments for you for new business.
Svantaggi
Virtually no support locally. Real estate managing broker located in a different state and time zone. Not able to respond adequately or in a timely fashion as the broker was in a different state and time zone. No maintenance personnel to help with lock changes, or handyman type repairs. Also no set list of vendors you need for typical property management issues like AC repairs, plumbing, roof repairs, move out cleaning and move out turnover work. Had to find my own vendors and contractors. Accounting department routinely made errors on landlord payouts and on your pay but would push back to property manager to explain to landlord what happened rather than call landlord themselves with a resolution. Local office is a professional suite only with no clerical support or drop box for weekend rent payment. System used for on line payment often off line or not working properly when time to pay rent. Company takes 50% of all rental income that property manager brings in. As a result, the level of effort and hours required to the job well put me in the negative after accounting for mileage and the time it took from my regular real estate business.
