I want to become a freelance rental property manager on the Florida panhandle. Basically I will rent peoples’ condos and beach houses out for them, make sure they are clean, and arrange maintenance and things like that.
Does anyone know:
How/what percentage I get paid (ie 10% of the rental rate or cleaning fees, etc)?
Do I need any additional certificates (I have a BA in Bus Admin/Marketing)?
What laws go along with this?
Will the renter pay me directly then I pay the owner or vice-versa?
ANY INFO OR HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
THANK YOU!

Are they responsible for any costs as far as repairs? http://www.ramsey-rentals.com/how-does-a-rental-property-manager-get-paid-are-they-responsible-for-any-costs-as-far-as-repairs/ http://www.ramsey-rentals.com/how-does-a-rental-property-manager-get-paid-are-they-responsible-for-any-costs-as-far-as-repairs/#comments Sat, 30 Jan 2010 00:25:05 +0000 http://www.ramsey-rentals.com/how-does-a-rental-property-manager-get-paid-are-they-responsible-for-any-costs-as-far-as-repairs/ If a rental property manager is just a manager under a different company name but everything involving the properties they manage is under the owner’s name, who is responsible for what costs? Can a owner charge for any tenants skipping out on their lease or a unit not being rented?

I have made considerable renovations to the property. I was told that I could write these home improvements off when my house becomes a rental prop. What I am not clear on is whether I can write things off if I am working with a property management company or if I must manage the property myself. I am not sure if there is a difference.

I would appreciate any clarification on this from people in the know! I want to be assured that I can write off these improvements, as it exceeds $25,000 at this point. Thanks.
